Need 5.25" to 3.5" external drive bay converter for Antec 300

scottw182 · Mar 30, 2010

Antec's online store has it but it's $18.87 after shipping. I Googled and found a couple places selling it, but I'm a bit weary of purchasing it from anyone other than Antec. I don't want to just get some generic adapter, I want the official one for the Antec 300 with the bezel and everything. The one I feel the most confident about is also the most expensive, it's on Amazon, $16.99, through buy.com:

http://www.amazon.com/5-25-3-5-adapter-300/dp/B0026I8HGS

I was hoping to spend less than that. There's another one on Amazon for $13.50 from "GES" but they only have 5 ratings, so I don't know about that...

Then, there's one on FadFusion:

http://www.fadfusion.com/selection.php?product_item_number=10024206299

$8.99, but doesn't say how much shipping is, and I don't want to create an account just to find out, but if it's around $3 that would be the cheapest option.

What should I do? Just bit the bullet and order from Antec?

Thanks, but I specifically want the Antec one with the bezel surrounding the bay so it looks good.

I doubt you're going to find an antec one for much cheaper... here's some others that may be something similar to what you're looking for

silverstone: http://www.performance-pcs.com/cata...product_info&cPath=52_87_137&products_id=1195

generic: http://www.performance-pcs.com/cata...duct_info&cPath=130_151_257&products_id=25520

lian-li: http://www.performance-pcs.com/cata...oduct_info&cPath=130_151_257&products_id=1280

cooler master w/ mesh: http://www.performance-pcs.com/cata...duct_info&cPath=130_151_257&products_id=21308

looking at the antec 300 case pictures, the lian-li one might be your best bet

if you're interested, PM me - I have a couple unused black Lian li 3.5 to 5.25" adapters w/ bezels for sale

Hi Scottw182,

I would definitely recommending buying it from us. I know it sounds like I'm trying to sell you the product but if you want an official Antec 300 5.25" to 3.5" adapter then you should buy it on our online store. Especially with all generic adapters on the market right now, you wouldn't know what you would be getting in the mail. Please let me know if you have any questions, I will be more than happy to answer them.

Regards,
Antec
