Glad I stumbled across this thread. I just bought an Armor tonight, and looking at buying a MCR-320 to mount in the front. Good to know that I'll have at least 1 bay free for my DVD-RW.
 
Thideras, where did you put your HD's? Back alongside the psu? just curious as i've thought of moving to a 120x3 config, and rather liked the HD enclosure config below my dvd drive

Being the 2nd owner if thid's case, the hdd's were mounted in a HDD rack next to the PSU.
He nailed it :D

Once I moved the radiator to the "floor" of the case, the 5.25" were accessible again, so you could use the iCage if you had it :shrug:

Wow. Why didn't I think of this. Power, reset and HDD led connectors are located bottom of the case, why not put the power switch at the bottom. :bang head
 
even though i am to late in repliying i will still add another choice similar to neonlazer brackets.

i would take a flat 1/8 sheet of steel or aluminum and make this.

the red lines are where you would drill holes to mount in the 5 1/4 drive bay slots.

(you can download the file for sketch up here)

it should also act as a shroud and focus all the air to the rad and not spill out the sides. i would use a rubber gasket (get a sheet of rubber from a hardware store i think) or use a thin layer of silicone, let it dry then mount it down.
