Why do cases still have so many CD trays/bays or whatever they are called? Isn't it 2019?

Blu ray drive

I'm amazed this still exists, I remember it being a thing ten years ago already.

Very nearly the perfect case for my requirements, I'll only need to DIY a PSU shroud.

I'm a boomer. I haven't used a CD in over 7 years.

I use the top 5.25 bay for a bluray drive since I still buy optical media for music. My last time using it was yesterday when I ripped an old Knowledge Magazine mix.

I use the second 5.25 bay for a 4 bay 2.5" hot swap caddy. It means I don't have to open the case if I want to swap out disks or a disk shits the bed.

I'm a boomer and I keep all my OSs on CDs and DVDs but modern versions of Windows seem to be too big for normal DVDs now so I might have to join the annoying and inconvenient future.

My technologically inept mom needs music burnt occasionally. Other than that I absolutely SWEAR on discs for boot installations.

About 30 minutes ago to test a blu-ray drive I installed into a laptop.

FD Focus G is really nice (and cheap)

thinking about getting this case for my next build

You probably could do better. I mean I guess it works, but the dust covers are a bit of a nightmare to set in place. And while the hard drive bay is set away from the magnets, the covers seem to have a nasty tendency to slip around, so it's probably better to remove the dust covers prior to moving the case.

And installing the fans was a bit of a pain, but I sorta anticipate that. At least there's plenty of room for cable management.

why is this case so expensive. lots of metal? are there any alternatives. they seem sold out everywhere

thanks, user

I'm getting this for my next build, it seems to check off all of my boxes

>check of all my boxes

>if junji ito made a case

Fellow boomer here, just use usb sticks.

what do you guys think of this computer box? that guy carey holzman on youtube used to swear by this case before he sold out and started making flashy gaming rigs

nxzt h500 is good but no front stuff.

I built using one of these a few years ago, 6th gen i7, it was great.

That being said, my heart belongs to the antec three hundred two.

>antec 300
I built one of my first computers in the antec 300 one.

I can still remember how great it felt even though it was a bit flimsy. That was before I set it on fire on my back porch because of family issues and trying to quit gaming

.......go on......

I was living at a campus appartment complex and decided to put the computer in my newly aquired charcoal grill. I must have just gotten some money from grandma and it had run out at that point For some reason I was pissed. Roasted an i5 4690k and a 750 ti graphics card IIRC. back when they were still pretty decent components

Do you have autism?

im fully functioning. I was intoxicated and alone a lot at the time.. why do you like Antec, antec 300 2 user?

The 690 series are the peak of mid tower cases.

Thanks for the (you). It's generally very easy to build in, is hefty but not heavy, is easy to hide cables, just a fun time overall.

cool. I know youre not even sponsored by antec to say that.

That's what _you_ think! :)

I bought the NZXT H500 meme case. If I could do it again I would choose a case without a glass side panel because I’m not an RGB fag, and I’d also like at least one external 3.5” or 5.25” bay for a card reader. Otherwise pretty happy with it, especially ease of cable management.
