The Disk Drive Bays
Contents
The Enermax Staray ECA3175-BL has four external 5.25” bays, one external 3.5” bay, and five internal 3.5” bays, all using tool-less installation mechanisms. A sixth internal 3.5” bay is available, but it incorrectly comes with a tool-less mechanism for floppy disk drives, not for hard disk drives, so this mechanism can’t be used. You still can use the bay for installing a hard drive, but you will need to use regular screws due to this error. This case doesn’t support 2.5” devices, which is a major drawback. Nowadays we expect to see even entry-level cases with at least one 2.5” bay.
