I'm considering purchasing a new case, and its so hard to find a case that looks good, without that part that covers the 5inch bays. This one here has that part. The question is, can that part be easily removed from this and similiar cases? I really hate having my cd rom drives blocked.

Look at an antec.
They have some very attractive cases with open bays.
Dang you've made a lot of posts since I last visited the Geek forum!

Hmmm so so case, but It would have to be without the Antec power supplies, ewww *Cringes*
Few years back ran into a bad batch ot antec 400watters, and blew out 3 or 4 of them within a months time. So much that the local computer store decided to make an exception to their "store credit only" refund policy. I blew out their entire inventory, and they gave me a cash refund :P I've been Enermax ever since.

Despite your historic bad luck, the Antec power supplies are among the most reliable... about the same as Enermax, statistically. I agree with other posters who recommend the Antec case with power supply... Antec has at least 11 different cases. Do not order the cheap one. There are better cases, but they are very expensive. Try the Lian.

I know they one of the better brands, but that was enought to make me avoid them for good.
I was thinking about the Enermax Noisetake 470 or possibly 600. Although the Vantec 500 looked nice, but I dont know how good Vantec's stuff is.
However this was a post about cases. I dont like having the 5inch bays blocked. I like my cd roms easily accessible, and I have 2 mobile racks which vents that would be blocked.

www.tomshardware.com has a new and useful article on computer cases. You might find just the information you need to make an informed decision on which case is best for you.
