Full-height bays were found in old PCs in the early to mid-1980s. They were 3.25″ high by 5.75″ wide, and up to 8″ deep (83 mm × 146 mm × 203 mm), used mainly for hard disk drives and floppy disk drives. Half-heightdrive bays are 1.625″ high by 5.75″ wide (41.3 mm × 146.1 mm), and are the standard housing for CD and DVD drives in modern computers, but were sometimes used for other things, including hard disk drives and floppy disk drives in the past. As the name indicates, two half-height devices can fit in one full-height bay. Often represented as 5.25-inch, these floppy disk drives are obsolete.
