[sllug-members]: Moving parts from one tower to another.

Can anyone warn me of the specific problems of moving all the parts from one tower to another larger tower?

What I gain from the move in putting the parts of my best working computer into a larger aluminum tower would be:  I could install a second hard drive cooler and use several, larger hard drives simultaneously.  I would have a new, larger rated power supply.  Hopefully the new tower would run cooler.  At least I could add more fans without worrying about popping the power supply.   

I have installed drives.  Put RAM in.  I have not destroyed a computer yet.  I have never pulled all those plugs on the MOBO.  In fact.  What order is best to do this.  I would guess I would move all the drives first.  Use stickies to label all the ends of the cables as I unplugged them.  Then move the MOBO.  That way I would not be dropping parts onto the MOBO as I was trying to secure the drives.  

For sure. I will wait for a day when the stores are open.  In case I need some little piece of hardware to finish.

What else should I be concerned about?
