HDD Optical Bay?

Go to solution Solved by GalacticRuler,

Something like this? It comes in different qualities and prices do you can get the one that's right for you. http://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-5-25in-Trayless-Mobile-3-5in/dp/B000KS8S9W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1447477372&sr=8-1&keywords=hdd+swap+bay

Hi there!

 

I have a question. So I was wondering if I can remove my HDD cage, and put it in the slots below the optical bay (not sure if that's still called the optical bay or not). I only have 1 HDD, so the drive cage is sorta in the way of airflow. I have a Optical player in, and wanted to use the slots below it, to house my HDD (And maybe a 2nd HDD in the future?)

 

Corsair Obsidian Series 760T is my case BTW

 

I'm pretty sure there is an adapter for it... just don't know what it would be called, and yes I could just place it ontop of there.. but that wouldn't really look nice.. would it?

 

Thanks guys!

Are you trying to put it in the 3.5 or 5.25? If it's the 5.25, they make HDD swap bays for that.
