Just doesn't haw money for it.
I'm a bit bamboozled here. Really.
Tt, since when you got your design creativity back? This looks absolutely fantastic!
And since I have long since moved to all m.2/ssd's, I favor the option to remove ALL drive cages and get the best possible air flow path :)
I see the desktop PC as virtually a one stop solution for anything. So I hate this trend that basically says "Your computer isn't a Blu-ray player.. get a dedicated machine instead." This idea of specialized equipment when you already have a PC is kind of dumb to me. Especially in these tower forms, where I should make use of space as much as possible. /rant
However, I have lived without any drive bays for quite a while now, even though my case (TT900) can accommodate one, I chose to use it for a digital fan controller instead.... But I already had an external blue ray drive when I bought that case, so that made my decision a bit easier...
They are very close and same shape.
But the case itself looks good.
BTW, I'm drunk. I have spent more time correcting my typing than this post deserves. Too boot, I may be completely wrong. The last Lain Li contraption, I saw, was w/ out a DVD slot. But, me thinks I may be right that a lot of those money boxes do have them.
Rant over, I am going to bed. Thinking I am right!! LOL!
Gute Nacht meine Freunde!
