I'm looking for a case to put in removable drive trays(2); a separate DVD burner & CD/RW and Temp. & Fan Controller & front mounted USB 2.0 & IEEE1394 connectors. This means all cases with 4 - 5.25" ext bays are not usable. I'd lile to spend less than $150.I don't want to cut the case apart to put these item in it.
Slightly off subj. What wattage of ps would be min for a multi drive system with SCSI on an Abit IC7-G board? Would PC3500 memory be overkill or just right to o/c a P4 2.6C 0r 2.8C
Thanks

Start looking at full tower cases. Those will have plenty of 5.25" drive spaces. Your memory will do fine and so will a 350w to 400w PSU. Most people don't need more than that, even with that kind of ... uh driveage. Anyway welcome to the forums!
 
Look under Bow Tech on newegg. If your mobo has P4 (4pin, square) power connector for CPU power then any good brand 350-400W PSU would be fine. Just set your SCSI drives for staggered startup. I've got 3 SCSI hard drives and a SCSI burner on a 250W Sparkle (the good one - FSP250-60ATV) no problemo.
