I should have stocked up! I'm looking to build a new system and really really love the top drop in drive shoot. Are there any good 5.25" bay units you'd recommend that don't require you to put the drive into a sled enclosure first? I often switch out drives both 2.5" and 3.5" and have no problem buying 2 bay units if they work better than 1 size fits all. I could go with an external drop in unit but I'm too likely to knock those over. I found the RC-692A-KKN5 for $400. I'd be willing to buy it if it was still at original pricing of $100 but every place is sold out.

Thanks

Wow, $400??? I had two of these cases and gave one to my bro, one to my friend to build systems in. I'd be cashing in if I'd kept them, I guess, lol.

I personally was going to buy:

In the end, I didn't because I got something a bit cheaper that didn't have the hot-swappable feature.

There are others that are trayless, like this kingwin:

I know nothing beyond that, but you can look at the questions/answer section and reviews.
