Ok so i have just placed all the necissary orders to complete this mod.

i decided to go witht he original look and use the old ports

then i finally got a switch in there right without glueing the switch itself closed

You should make some kinda GC controller to USB adapter and keep the stock ports. That would be pretty neat.

*Edit: Ever see the Panasonic Q?

Ok so the motherboard came today and I got a surprise, the IDE is smaller than a regular and NOT a floppy, so either need to find a converter or find a way to run both the dvd drive and hdd of the one sata. any ways gues i should post some pics of the board.
First off, OMG look how small this thing is

then check out the power supply and what it uses to connect to the board

as you can see I have Plenty of room

then i have many differnet ways of fitting it all in heres three

heres some work I did, I made the hole for the power with my "dremel"

and finally, the difference of size i ide ( grey is the one it came with, black is the one i need to use)

Does your 2.5" HDD retrieve data and power through the same cable? May explain why the cable doesn't fit.

Love the board though, I want to get one really bad lol.

The hdd is sata, the dvd drive is IDE, the board has one sata port

so turns out i can just get a slimline to 44 pin adator but it'll cost me quite a bit

Ah, I misread.

ok so i placed the hdd, like it is in the plenty of room picture
EDIT: I also just fitted the board like it is in the plenty of room picture, i now have the shell on and it looks great, pics in the morning

yeah i just looked at it. the ide port is for a laptop ide hdd. the old ata-6 i beleive. that is why it wont fit right. try and look for a ata6 to ide or ide to ata6 adaptor. other than that it is looking awesome man.
