So I'm looking for a new case for my computer. Form factor should be ATX and at mid tower. I'm sure most people don't have a problem with this as there are lots of really good cases out there.

 

But here's the catch. I need a case with at least one 5 1/4" external drive bay. I'd also like the cast NOT to have a door to access the drive bay. For all intent's and purposes I only need one 5 1/4" drive bay.

 

Thanks in advance for the suggestions.

What do you need the 5.25" bay for?

I edit my posts a lot, Twitter is @LordStreetguru just don't ask PC questions there mostly...

What is your budget/country for your new PC?

 

what monitor resolution/refresh rate?

 

What games or other software do you need to run?

It's a nice case, but it does NOT have a 5 1/4" drive bay.

There is a version which has it.

Does it truly matter why I need one? The fact is I do need one.

There might be a simple USB or internal solution that doesn't require keeping a 5.25" bay around.
