why do I need xtra drives :\
I was hoping someone on here could point me to some cool accessories, like the xray (cupholder and cigarette lighter), you know, stuff thats not really necessary, but just a new idea, something interesting

How many extra bays do you have? Put the Thermaltake Xray in that you want, Fan controller, Cooler Master Musketeer System Dynamics Detector, Ant farm, Switch panel for your lights and the list can go on an on. I am thinking about taking my modem an router apart and putting thrm in one of my spare drive bays. If I can figure out how to keep the wires nice and hidden then I just might do it.

Lol I don't smoke, I wanted the cupholder, not the lighter
but... I decided that its pretty much worthless considering that my tower will be on the floor, which means to be able to have good access to the cupholder, I'd need to put it on the top.
At the top, the cup would restrict access to the USB ports, Optical drives, and anything else I put up there :\
no use to me.

They make them but they are a pain to setup. You have to wire a parallel port to them because they are not really made for computer applications.
There's 4" LCD displays that work as a pretty good tv display. Problem is that you need to use the TV out on your card at the same time you're gaming. That would hag your framerates pretty badly.
For mine, I used an old removable harddrive enclosure.
I inserted an old 20 gig ATA66 drive I had laying around (just enough space).
I ran norton ghost and backed up my entire system to it.
When you turn the key to remove it, the power shuts off. I leave it in there where it's safe, but nothing can happen to the data when it's unplugged. Like an easier to use zip drive without the expensive media, and windoze doesn't have a cow with it.
Just a thought.
