Is there a box that holds internal 3.5 inch HDD s? I have a case that i have filled up with 2TB "4 Slots", I have a 1TB HDD and x3 500GB HDD's  that i would like to add to my computer. Is there a box (Doesn't matter if it needs to be plugged into a socket) that serves as an expansion for hard drives? It doesn't need to have any fancy features, but if there are, it wouldn't bother me.

I've built 3 PC's, but none for myself... In fact, I'm using an iMac that my dad bought for me as my desktop. Awkward...

Please don't say "SSD drive." By doing so, you are literally saying "Solid State Drive Drive" and causing my brain cells to commit suicide. The same applies to HDD (Hard Disk Drive) and PCIe (Peripheral Component Interconnect Express).

did you try googling that at all. your title is literally your answer, Hard Drive Enclosures  , were you looking for something that was inside your case? if not this is what your looking for. 

CPU - Intel i5-6600k - Mobo - MSI Z170A M3 Gaming - RAM - 16GB G.SKILL DDR4 2133 -  GPU - MSI R9 380 4GB

Here you go, take your pick.

Sorry to say LMGTFY is banned on the forum so try to avoid it in the future (but I would use it too if it wasn't)

Tip to those that are new on LTT forum- quote a post so that the person you are quoting gets a notification, otherwise they'll have no idea that you did. You can also use a tag such as @Ryoutarou97 (replace my username with anyone's. You should get a dropdown after you type the "@")to send a notification, but quoting is preferable.

 

Feel free to PM me about absolutely anything be it tech, math, literature, etc. I'll try my best to help. I'm currently looking for a cheap used build for around $25 to set up as a home server if anyone is selling.

 

If you are a native speaker please use proper English if you can. Punctuation, capitalization, and spelling are as important to making your message readable as proper night theme formatting is.

 

My build is fully operational, but won't be posted until after I get a GPU in it and the case arted up.

Oops, forgot about that. 

 

In all seriousness though, OP. 4 bay hard drive enclosures are one quick Google search away. They start at about $80 and don't get any cheaper.
