Dude, I have a case that is 2.5 - 3ft. tall and a 36" is fine. And yes, you CAN switch the cables around, HOWEVER I have seen situations where it doesn't work if you have multiple drives. There is a difference between the blue connector and the others in terms of the way data flows with dual drives, but most of the time you can get by. Alas, one may be fully capable of doing something, but that doesn't mean they should (I could kill someone, but I'm not gonna... yet). Just get a longer cable. If a flat (ribbon) cable won't work try a rounded one.
