Well this is it. Crunch time.
This is the time when people make silly mistakes. Some things to remember;
Always check your wire connections twice before powering up your Vantec.
As you make last minute adjustments put an empty box aside and throw spare nuts
and bolts into it so you're sure to have them in Vegas.
Charge all your batteries the night before.
Get some sleep!
