Phanteks Enthoo Evolv ATX Question

Awakening

This is mostly aimed for someone that has the case.

 

I'm going to be putting a thick radiator in the front that requires the plate on the PSU shroud to be removed. I'm almost certain that the hard drive bay down in the basement will get in the way. Can the dual hard drive bay be moved to the right and secured back down or will I have to drill holes into the bottom of the case to resecure it? I plan on adding three HDDs so it's definitely important because I don't want to mount them visibly in the case or with double-sided tape that would cause vibrations.

Is there anything physically stopping it from being moved to the right toward the PSU? If not, but the bay can't be attached again, I was thinking about maybe stacking three of these instead.

The bigger issue is that bracket only supports two 3.5" drives.  Even if you move it, you would still be one drive short.

Yeah. I can figure something out for that one.

you will need to drill new holes. still though, if you make a bracket yourself, and just make sure to get some rubber padding on the contact it should be silent, right?

Hopefully. Like I mentioned above, I guess I'll just remove the original bracket and buy three of these, stack them, and attach them to one another with velcro. Surely that'll solve the problem and keep them silent.

Is FrozenCPU back?!  While I have used them many times in the past on previous builds, I would exercise extreme caution ordering from them now:
