Hi.

I was wondering if I should buy an external SD card reader or a usb hub on a fractal design define r5. What do you think is the best option? I have already filled up the one bay using a dvd reader. What is the best SD card reader for use in the drive bay or an external one. I have already started looking at the MAGICVIEW iMono CS-440, is it any good or should I upgrade it? I hope that is all you need to know and if there are any questions don't be afraid to ask them :p

Thank you in advance :)

I would definitely take the obsidian. I love CM but obsidian and a various of corsair's cases are known for that delicate touche the give it. But in terms of lasting I'd take CM. The only...

You look like a "me" I like putting all kinda of stuff in my pc. XD. You seem to need an external since the r5 have only 2 bays. If you decide to get an internal NZXT Aperture is you best choice. I love peraphals from NZXT theybare always good looking and reliable. FOR external the MAGICVIEW iMono CS-440 is good a friend ofine bought one 2 months ago and he just bought a double contact tape and stocked it to the right back top of he's case. And I just called him to answer you and he says he loves it. He's a photographer and editor. He uses sd as storage to keep he's children away from he's saved jobs.
Good luck

Unfortunately the NZXT Aperture does not exist in Norway. What other sd card reader would you recommend that is internal? Do you think I should maybe get a different case with one or two extra drive bays?

I was going to tell you that but didn't think you would like the idea. I recommend to a Cooler Master Elite 430 it has 3 drive bays an 2 3.5 inches bays I have one but I gotta say I love the looking of the r5. If you want an internal You might want to buy a 3.5 inch reader like Rosewill RDCR-11003 it comes with a 3.0 USB port. For the 5 inch bay you can get aSunshine-Tipway 5.25 Inch Media Dashboard it comes with an LCD screen showing temperatures and a 4 fan controller.

I wasn't really a fan of the case's aesthetics, would you recommend another case? The Sunshine Tipway 5.25 Inch Media Dashboard does not exist in norway either. Is their anything similiar to it?

Well, tell me a price you would give for a case and tell me a brand you can find in your country for reader.

It could cost approximately 135 us dollars. Almost every brand is available. Take this in to consideration when choosing a case, the prices in Norway are higher than they are in other countries such as USA and canada.

If you problem is bays buy one from the HAF brand. They are not only good looking and reliable but they are also built with space. They even have cases with 5 bays.
About the sd card reader tell me a couple of brands you can buy over there or that you like the most.

Oh! Ok... If your buying from a merchant page than it will be easier. Merchant pages secret to buy is the following. Search for the product you want and than search for one that has above 4 stars and from those choose the ones with the most buyers or reviews (that little number after the stars). Of course you also have to like what you see

I found a couple of cases I like. Which one would you recommend, CM Storm Trooper,Corsair Obsidian 750D,In Win GRone,In Win 707. All of them have 3 odd's and hopefully that is enough for my needs.

The only problem with the corsair cases is that every game they have removable bays they fail. Bays are criticize for being weak. Now I gave you to choices you decide xD.
In Win they need some finishing touch to their products... They always seem to be ugly.
