Product to Convert 3or4 5.25 bays for mult. HDDs

[ginjaninja]

Hope someone can advise on a product.

i need additional 3,5" hdd slots (at east 3 more hdds), internally in my case.
I dont need a fancy (if costly) data backplane (although a backplane for power would be nice if not expensive), just an easy way to mount the drives.
I could just use individual 5.25 to 3.5 converters but was hoping there might be a more premium solution...perhaps 1 chasis which fits in the 5.25 bays and provides a simple way to fix the hdds.

Just need to tide me over until i do a new build with case with 10hdd slots.


Any products or brands recommended?
thanks

OCUK stock some IcyBox backplane options - http://www.overclockers.co.uk/productlist.php?groupid=701&catid=14&subid=72&rows=0

Or if you're looking for something a bit cheaper then Lian Li do a few 3 into 2 or 4 into 3 options but I'm not sure how well they fit non Lian Li cases - http://www.lian-li.com/v2/en/product/product04.php?cl_index=2&sc_index=5&ss_index=12

I looked at both brands, at these prices i may as well just buy a new case i think.
at least they dont have backplanes which constrain supported disk size.
Hopefully they isnt a change in motherboard form factor on the horizon which will render an early case purchase redundant.
thanks
