When adding your old drives into a new pre-built PC, the only thing worse than dog shit cable management is dog shit cable management that's been zip-tied in place.
Seriously, of the first thing I had done was cut the ties, I probably could have saved myself three or of the six hours this took.
The moral of this story is never buy a mid-tower if you can help it.
Home Depot, Lowe's, Ace, etc. have velcro facimiles of cable ties with are easily adjustible and reusable and while I'm not a tech nerd, I am a musician and just someone who has trouble organizing, and being able to tidily wrap up an extension chord, power chord, etc. when I'm not using it has been very helpful. 9.5/10 very highly recommend.
oh wow they're cheap AF on Amazon. https://www.google.com/search?q=velcro+ties+for+cables&oq=velcro+ties+f&aqs=chrome.0.0i512j69i57j0i512l2j0i22i30l6.2888j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8
