HDD supension in the Antec One?

Has anyone attempted it? Looks like there would be just enough room. Not the best case for silence but I need a cheap case with 5 3.5 bays and 2 SSD mounts.

Thanks

I didn't understand your question. You need 5.25 bays to suspend 3.5 HDDs , the Antec One has just three, and you may use 3.5 bays to suspend 2.5" HDDs, but you didn't say which HDDs you're going to use: so, what's the point of the Antec One for your needs?

Typically, yes.

I've suspended drives in may places other then 5.25 bays, including 3.5 bays. The bays look just wide enough because of the rails used. Hence, my question.

Ah, ok, never tried: IMVHO it could be advisable to modify the thread subject (I'm thinking to something like: "Which are the Antec One 3.5" bays actual measures?"), because what you told me right now isn't that apparent from the title.
