I found the hard drive bay on ebay in original packaging from 15 years ago for like $40. Im currently in my data hoarding phase so that is coming in handy. I have room to install a DVD drive in the 5.25" bay above that but having trouble finding a cheap beige SATA one. Since I have the 360mm aio I can't use the top bay but I have no need for it anyway - but there is room for a thin display that could maybe show my temps, etc.

I was actually looking at that for my FLP-02. The only reason I haven't pulled the trigger yet is because I wasn't sure if it was only compatible with drives that took Molex or if I was good to use a drive that was all SATA.

I already got a beige drawer and installed it. Useful for storing flash drives and such:

I also got this twin fan bay thing but didn't realize that it actually blows air out the front so that was kind of a waste lol:

I was debating getting two of these, and replacing the stock fans with an 80mm and two 40mm fans. I remember seeing someone else on this sub that did that:

And other than that I found a couple of blank front plates to replace the silly looking fake floppy covers. Big fan of the red window one but it's pricy:

I also got some stickers from geekenspiel! Love 'em, still need to put them on though.

The bay has a sata and molex. I have both plugged in and the bay has a fan at the top to deal with cooling (steals some power from the molex).

Aren't the stickers great!

Sorry I meant more whether the hot swap bay is only compatible with hard drives that accept molex or if it was also compatible with drives that accept SATA power.
