Does anyone know if there's adequate clearance (and breathing space) for a 120mm fan in the lower 3 5.25 bays WITH the bay covers on? The vents for the intake extend all the way up, so I'm thinking that could also work for a bay mounted intake.

Hello Brendan,
I don't have one here at the moment, but once you remove the knock-outs, the trick would be how to mount a 120mm fan. I think it would fit -- but why do you think that you need this? I doubt that you need more than just one of the two optional 92mm fans as an intake.

Yes there is, presuming you're going to remove the knockouts. As Neil noted you'll have to get inventive in mounting such a fan (cable ties and so on) but it'll certainly fit.cyberspyder wrote:Does anyone know if there's adequate clearance (and breathing space) for a 120mm fan in the lower 3 5.25 bays WITH the bay covers on?

Probably use cloth elastics...just like the hard drive bungies.nutball wrote:Yes there is, presuming you're going to remove the knockouts.
