- 1 x 3.5" external Drive Bays
- 3 x 5.25" external drive bays

The 838-PEB Board comes blank you may choose options for assembly.
This product has been designed around the 838-IO Plus card that replaces the Texas Instruments Flex Cable Interface. Depending on the case you choose, and purchase will depend on if you can use the existing 838-IO Plus PEB card (if you purchased it). If not, you will have to purchase the 838-IO Plus ATX version of the card, which is shorter to allow for the existing cables to be snaked through the standard PC IO slot and plug directly into the card.
The 838-PEB board has the below standard features:
- 8 x Expansion Slots
- USB Pass through Power
- USB Standby Power
- 4 x 12v Fan headers
- 1 x 12v tap
- 2 each of 3.3v and 5v power taps
- Front USB3 connector for power and data use
- Connects for Gotek1 and Gotek2 drives for external mods for use with Display and Rotary. USB Data Lines (D and D-) hooked to front USB ports for use with MicroGotek or other USB hardware
- RJ45 connected to Gotek1 and Gotek2 rotary and display headers for external hookups
- Power Switch and Power LED hookups
- connector for use with 838-Latching Relay Module
The 838-Latching Relay Module is required if a user will use the existing momentary power switch that all PC cases are equipped with. This module allows the momentary switch to act as a latching switch. Press to power on, press to power off. If the Latching relay module is not purchased, then the switch will have to be replaced with a latching switch to ensure the ATX power supply stays on.
