Up front USB/Firewire/Sound

[tboneuls]

I need a drive bay up-front panel that will mount in an unused 3.5" or preferably, a 5.25" bay. I would like to be able to use the headers on the mobo for USB Firewire, and sound, instead of passing them through the case to the back. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks. Sorry if this is in the wrong category.

I've seen some multi-function card readers with Firewire, USB, Mic, and Headphone jacks. About $30 from Newegg. Haven't ever looked for much else.

Good luck!

-D'oh!

I think you'll find EXACTLY what you're describing at Enermaxusa.com. Click on the "Peripherals" link, then the third item from the left. (For some reason, I couldn't get the link to paste properly into this message.)

They come in black, silver, and either white or beige (can't tell from the picture). They also offer USB 2.0 rather than 1.1. They have fan controllers too, but nothing says you have to use them.

Some of those products that Daniel mentioned at Frontx.com look pretty cool too!

try frontX. You can use their drive bay or use a drill and dremmel to mount them anywhere you like.
