I swear I've seen intake fans that slot into a 5 1/2 drive bay but I cant find them; most of the time I end up with hard disk coolers. Am I searching for the right thing - drive bay coolers/fans? or are they called something else? I have 2 spare bays, and I'm considering just putting in two 80mm case fans, but this would be a bit of a chore, plus noisy. Thanks in expectance.
u mean one of these ? http://www.total-insanity.com/ebay/auction/images/tt-900_l.jpg if so i got mine from maplin Picture too big. Edited down to a link. - Haddy
I got one from maplin, shifts a shed load or air, I sold it because i dont like bay mounted fans really but it certainly did the job. The other plus point is that if your pcs sat at head level on the left side of you it makes a great fan as the grill is angled to blow the air to the left.
Just make them yourself: 3x Sunon 40mm 9.5CFM fans. They don't move a lot of air but I needed some cooling in the upper part of my WC'ed Lian Li due to the presence of quite a lot of electronics. CD [Edit for spelling]
Thanks all! Couldnt seem to find any in my usual looking places; like the mini fan idea, but i dont really have the tools or the 'knack' to assemble much myself. Cheers EDIT: Wow! Maplin is cool; I thought it was a solely American shop but obviously not. Excellent!
