Hey,

I'm currently on the look for a cheap gaming case. But from just searching around, it looks like that alot of the computer cases don't have disk drive slots implemented on the front. Am I corret? Or do I have to remove a panel or something.
FYI - I am looking at getting this case, could you check if it supports a dvd disk drive, and if it haves one on the front Coolermaster RC-K380-KWN1 K380

Thanks.

It supports DVD drives. You just have to remove the drive cover in the front.
Most cases have drive covers that you remove to install CD/DVD drives. Just go the case manufacturer's site and look if the case has exposed 5.25" drive bays.
The Cooler Master K380 has three bays you can use. http://www.coolermaster.com/case/mid-tower/k380/

Every case has a dvd slot. You got to remove its drive cover. This is a good cheap gaming case which has 3 5.25" drive bays. (5.25" bays are DVD slots). So you can put 3 DVD Burners.

As far is I know, all ATX and ITX cases have DVD drive slots, some DTX cases don't have DVD slots but I'm not sure if you are interested in that type of cases. The K380 case you mentioned has DVD drive slots.
I'm sure the K380 case is fine, but there are some other cases worth checking out, with about the same pricetag. For example:
- Zalman z9 plus
- Corsair 200R (recently did a build with this case, it's VERY good for it's pricetag)
- Antec One
