This means a lot of wires, obviously. Am I likely to have trouble with TSA at DFW? If so, what can I do to prevent this?

Thanks.
I carry a ton of electronics, chargers, wires, multiple cell phones, cameras and other junk all crammed in a little bag packed solid inside my carry-on. Surprisingly, it has never caused me any trouble at all anywhere. YMMV. If I were carrying full sized disk drives I would probably take those out and put them in a tray separately just to avoid any issues since they might be large and opaque on an x-ray. Again YMMV.
