I have a Tecware Nexus M and it has already 2 HDDs and 1 SSD... I'm planning to add 1 or 2 more HDDs and 1 SSD... Any chance I can add more to it? I don't want to use external parts I want them all inside the case. Any help will be appreciated. Thanks! 

Motherboard: MSI B450m Mortar Max

Processor: Ryzen 7 2700 w/ Wraith Prism

RAM: Klev Cras X 3200mhz 8gb x2

GPU:  Zotac Mini GeForce GTX 1070ti 8GB

PSU: Seasonic GX-750

Case: Inplay Robin 101 + 10 fans w/ hub and remote

Storage: Toshiba 1TB, Western Digital WD Green 1TB, Crucial BX500 480GB

The SSD shoudlnt be an issue since the case officially supports 2 of them. The HDD's will be hard though. 

 

I tried loking into finding a bracket that you could mount to a 120mm fan, but theyr'e either proprietary to specific cases, discontinued or otherwise wouldnt work for your case. You COULD leave them loose but it's not recommended since they vibrate and will rattle.

I'll see what I can do then. Thank you, though! I'll look into using tapes or wires or something of the like for the HDDs...
