Chassis Support for Front USB Ports

[Houndstooth]

I am going to buy a motherboard that supports 10 USB ports, 6 front and 4 rear. Most of the chassis that I have looked at have only two front ports. I found one that had four in the front but the way it is wired is weird. Two of the ports wire directly to the motherboard and the other two have to be connected to the back of the motherboard.

Does anyone know of a chassis that supports more front ports? Or, is there an adapter device that can fit in the 5.25" bay?

I don't know anything about a chassis that will support more front ports.

There are plenty of 5.25" adapter devices out there. I used to have one that just had the USB ports. Got it from TigerDirect. A lot of times the USB ports are in combination with something else though, like this one from NewEgg.

And there is always THIS. You should be able to jam at least 4 USB ports, plus a few other goodies.

Thanks, the 5.25" adapters seem to be the way to go.
