Don't panic, provided you're not doing anything dumb like taking it apart with wet hands or while it's still plugged in, you can't really do much damage in there, the first time is always a little nerve-racking but once you get to grips with it you won't think twice about messing with your systems guts when a problem comes up.
Also, if you can get comfortable enough with installing your own hardware, building a new system from components is way cheaper than getting an off-the-shelf box when it comes to it, means you can set it up exactly how you want too.
I couldn't stand running a pre-made machine these days, I just have to know exactly what's going on under the hood.
