Area-51 AAT2250, silver wire unplugged, alone

Is this normal? I just received my Area-51 computer with great excitement, and I see this cable disconnected/unplugged

It is not normal at all to have a loose, bare wire dangling in the case. It looks like it may have pulled out of one of the black shrink wrap type connectors.

Do you recommend to call the warranty? Or dell?

Yikes.  Mine is arriving soon.  I ALWAYS open them up before powering on.  I'll definitely be looking in that area closely.

That's one of a pair of wires supplying SATA power.  I'm pretty sure it came out of the hole pointed to by the arrow.  Given the particular wiring in this unit, I'm curious to know what solution Dell provided.
