"where's my tag?"
Posts: 510
So far I've bought a silver floppy drive, a black DVD drive and a white DVD-RW drive (they were the only colours availible for them models), and I'm starting to worry for the 'blue' tower case that will be comeing soon. I'm guessing things might look freaky. And so the question is... do cases normally hide the colours of their CD/DVD/disk drives?

I can just see the horror now. My blue PC with the black and white DVD drives staring at me, and a silver 3.5 delivering the final blow...

Both of my cases have a door over the drive bay section, presumably to conceal the mismatch between the metallic grey of the case and the beige/white/black drives. It's not ideal, but it's not the end of the world.

You could always stealth the drives with the drive bay covers.

There's people rotting with cancer and you raise the slightest concern about this?

There's people in Third World countries dying of AIDS, starving, and being poisoned simply because their water is dirty - and you raise the slightest concern about this?

Drive bay covers are hard to find for most models.

But no, other than buying covers or using doors (which I hate) no, cases do not cover the drive bays. And they don't come with covers most of the time.

Which is why I buy everything in black.

Any case bought new should come with the drive bay covers.

Doubtful...

My Centurion 5 didn't.

But that's probably due to it's amazing front bezel...
