Get used to it..this is how many new cases are designed.
The PSU and hard drives are contained in a partition in the bottom. The
PSU (and sometimes another fan) draws air over the HDs, cooling them, and
another fan is used to exhaust hot air at the top.
Really seems like a decent design to me...
Except that with heat rising, it makes more sense to me to put the CPU, HD
and CDROM at the top of the case, with vanes above them to allow the heat
to rise, and a fan at the front to pull air in and one at the back to
exhaust it out.
Lots of cases put the HDs at the bottom, and even with a great fan system,
you still get heat rising into the case.
