Mid- or full-tower case with external 2.5" SATA HDD dock

[Jack Skell]

I have been searching for a case that incorporates an external SATA bay (or dock) that I can slide 2.5 inch HDD drives in and out. Maybe something on top, or a slot into a 3.5" external bay.

I also have not been able to find an adaptor to fit into a 3.5" external bay to retrofit an existing case.

Ideas? Links?

Thanks!

I know of no cases with an external 2.5 inch bay. I think your best solution is to use an SSD/HDD dock.

Yes, I have one of those, very handy (anyone considering one, get one with 2 bays), but I was looking for a case-integral solution. After quite a bit of spelunking, I found this, which might not suck:

So, I'm considering this, but will still need yet another adapter to put in a 5.25" external bay.

Thanks for the response!
