How Do You Use Your Spare Drive Bays?

Posted by Cliff on from the getting-the-most-from-that-extra-space dept.

red_flea asks: "I've got a couple of CDROM bays that I'm not using. Besides another CD or DVD ROM drive, what else can you put there? I know some people who use that space to cool their Cheetah or Raptor drives. Anything else? Please reply with gratuitous linking to products, articles or modder blogs."

    Agreed.

    AND you can't be calling them "Spare cd-rom drive bays". That kinda' limits them to being filled by cd drives doesn't it. :)

    More seriously, _CRIKIES_ man. You can't ask someone "Hey dude... I wann'a ba a gekk. What can I stick in the empty slot so I can be ubercool". Also, If it involves any prepackaged item from Fries/CompUSA, you lose.

    What do _you_ want in there? What are _you_ inerested in?

    Dang man, be yourself.

    Ever heard of the BriQ? (Picture) It's an entire PowerPC computer in a 5.25" drive form factor. Very cool. I'm not entirely sure if it is still available though as the link I have bookmarked isn't coming up. Either way, I figured it warranted mentioning.
