Hehe...I would go for that if not for metal shavings. If I get desperate 
enough, I'll remove everything from the case and cut a hole. I can't 
believe some case manufacturers are so dumb that they make case slots 
that can't be reached with standards-compliant cables. I guess they get 
to advertise "X slots more than the competition", but omit the fact that 
you can only use part of them at a time. In this situation it is also 
partly a problem that the slots that a cable must go through to reach 
the bays also fails to accept fatter connectors.
