3.5" to 5.25" adapter

[xnem3s1sx]

Can anyone recommend a good adapter for 3.5" HDD to 5.25" bays? I need two of them, and they need to be able to fit right on top of one another. I don't want to spend much money, and I don't need a fan (though I wouldn't complain.)

Not sure what you are looking for. I use these to mount HD in 5.25 bay. Circuit City carries them.

If you do not need the fans, get the white one and just do not install the front just use the metal bars to hold the drives

I use the first one Nuke posted to pull air into the top of two cases I have with closed front bezel. Of course HD wil fit too if needed. I airbrushed the unit to the color I needed. Spray paint will work fine.8)

I used to use that one(a startech equivalent) to cool between my DVD drives . now i use the fans for chipsets.

I have two DVD RWs mounted practically flush on top of one another in a micro case. When my wife burns a CD and opens the tray, she complains the CD is so hot! The case only has those two 5.25 bays. Otherwise, the system is running cool enough.
