Cheapest thing to put in a 5.25 empty bay?

[squarehead94]

hi all

I've sold my spare gaming rig. It comes in a coolermaster storm scout case. It has an empty bay cover but has a dvd drive in there. I don't want to give it to the guy with an empty cover, so i need something as cheap as possible to fill it. preferaby £5 or less. anything at all really, as im unsure that standard 5.25 bay covers will fit due to the mountings they will have.

cheers!

Can get useful box/draw things which fit in the optical bay. Certainly less than a fiver.

Ask coolermaster support for a spare cover?

Or just tell the guy and if he's gonna put a drive in it anyway, you save £5.

no i mean, theres basically 2 currently empty slots. theres one for his dvd drive, and 1 that currently has one of those 5.25-3.5" converter bay covers but obviously theres a hole in that one so its no good.

Im tempted to tell him, or just sling in a dead drive... but obviously it wont look very well.

i would but would guess it'd take longer than 5 days from asking to receiving one

Why not just ask? then forward it to him if they will send you one.

Don't suppose you've got a link? I've had a search and all I can find is the expensive StarTech things that are lockable (which seems a little over the top!)
