Well i am looking for a Big HD, maybe 400-500 or even bigger, not over say 150-175, and since all my HD bays are full, i need a 5.25 bay converter for it. I havve 4 5.25 bays open so if i get somethign thats big i won;t mind to much.

Anyone have any ideas, i tend oto lean toward WD becuase i have yet to have a drive go dad with them.

assuming you want sata 3.0gbs I would look at seagate 400gb or seagate 500gb

IcyDock Sata enclosure is a good option for your 5.25 bay to fit a hard drive in. I reviewed it here

I was thinking of somethign liek this becuase i care more about keeping them coop then the hot swapable. I would enjoy some hot swapable but i didn;t see a fan on there.

Also was looking at some HDs, i figured why not get the 500gig, its on;y 35 bucks more but the seagates are more expensize and the reviews said they stay and run very hot.
