  1. External USB Port by Vagary · · Score: 1 · on ABIT's Secure IDE Motherboard

    In order to be really useful, the wire from the HD would have to be connected to a USB port, preferrably on the front of the machine. This would be a great use for those goofy computers that come with "gaming" ports on the front, and a minor mod to mount a port in a front-panel drive bay.

  2. frontx! by aderusha · · Score: 2, Informative · on Creative Uses for 5.25" Drive Bays?

    howabout any ports you want? frontx lets you "roll your own" front panel ports with a reconfigurable system for adding usb, 1394, key/mouse, audio, and just about whatever else into the front of your pc by way of a 5.25" drive bay face plate.

  3. Two ideas by BlueLightning · · Score: 4, Informative · on Creative Uses for 5.25" Drive Bays?

    1. LCD Panel from CrystalFontz, Matrix Orbital, or make your own.
    2. I/O panel such as a FrontX. These are great.

  4. Re:sound card connections should be upfront! by gorillasoft · · Score: 2, Informative · on Improving Computer Form Factors?

    But let me say how nice it would be to have the audio connections in a convenient place up front. It bugs the hell out of me to have to reach behind my PC, which is a mess of wires.

    Sounds like you could use something like this.

  5. Options... by ArcticChicken · · Score: 4, Informative · on Any Cases With Front-Facing Expansion Slots?

    These guys were mentioned in a previous AskSlashdot article. Looks kinda neat, doesn't it?

    Another simpler option (USB only) can be found at Antec's site.

  6. Re:What I want/need by magic+chef · · Score: 1 · on Case Tweaking

    In that case, you should really check out Front-X. I think it does pretty much what you want.

  7. How about adapting drive bays? by Kris_J · · Score: 2 · on Cases w/ Knockouts Up-To 10 I/O Ports?
    Have you tried anything like the "Live Drive". I mention is since you appear to have an audio application.

    Or there's FrontX for more generic ports.

  8. Front stuff by dago · · Score: 3 · on The Ultimate PC Case - Continued
    What I'd like especially for my PC would be the stuff that you put in your bays. Hopefully, I've got 4 free so, I'll be able to put stuff like

    Eventullay a numeric keypad sticking on it to do like a house entrance / car alarm (very 'jacky').

    Some of this mods are functionnal btw.
