i don't understand so are those front facing drives functional? because that's definitely a disc drive behind one of them, but that shell on the outside looks like a giant 6 inch floppy insertion point

you 4chan drones, hear me out, what about this: a 3.5 floppy disk BUT, it's an ssd drive, you know, like an sd card but bigger and more sovlful.
Now, games, you buy the game and it comes ready to play on this format, with it's cool stickers and box

With all the 90s and 2000s nostalgia becoming trendy recently, it's strange why no case companies have released new beige retro-style cases yet.

some cases officially support horizontal operation.
still gay glass and won't let you put anything on top, but at least this gay glass would not be reflected in the monitor.

This case is just a GD08 short rack/HTPC Case with a new front panel and beige, its been on sale for like 15 years in some form or another.

Basically no one is buying them outside of a few niche people that still want a HTPC box.

Honestly, black and white is going to fall out of favor in a few years. I predict that in 2027-2028 gamer/color accents will be back on the menu, but it will have more industrial and mature look compared to 2010s plastic toy design.

Those cases are fabulous. I recommended them to a half-dozen friends who wanted HTPCs in the 2010's.

That slot is begging to be cut and fitted with a slot-loading drive.

This case would be so much better with a solid panel option with some support inside so I could use it as a footrest.

I found a youtube video of a guy that made modified 3.5 floppies with SD cards in them, complete with reader inside the drive.
https://youtu.be/9X9UdsIKGOc?si=u33Z-XLNj2aqm_73&t=1431

But yeah, you could really take this all the way to full size M.2 drives so it was actually usefull for modern day file transfers.

>>103251511
There was a company back in the day that made SD readers inside of 3.5" diskettes. I have one somewhere.

>>103253858
since there are 4 of them, the cooling liquid might leak 4 time at different periods of the month. Apart from that, I don't think there are any.
>>
>>103241417
I think it would be cool too bu Its basically just comes down to cost, devs will cry and moan but they're really delighted to give away ONLY 30% of their profit to steam or whoever on every sale because by comparison that is a very good deal compared to what they used to get from distributors who had to also cut in the retailers and the cost of boxes and disks and distrbution to stores and everything else. Simply they have it way too good these days and there's no going back.

My now ex-wife and I did some drunk painting bob ross things with kids paints and canvases in 2019 and 2020 and that was the result. It was pretty fun honestly.
>>103246627
that node 605 was built a lot better than any silverstone case, with thicker steel, good mass damping bitumen felt, and over all sturdier build. I regret selling the two I had.
>>
>>103251400
Do they even make slot-loaders anymore? When I was last shopping for an optical drive a few years ago, I didn't see any (except for external ones, which don't count)
>>
>>103254897
not him but probably not. the more unique or fancy versions of something usually disappear once the thing it's for becomes less popular, leaving behind only the more basic types
or in this context, since optical drives aren't as popular as they were in the '00s when slot loaders were most common, there's little incentive to make them now that the only people left buying optical drives aren't spending more for the nicer or unique ones
i'm sure you've noticed this elsewhere, the best versions of a product for an obsolete or near-obsolete format were when the format in question was at its' peak
>>
>>103254897
What a coincidence.
>>
>>103241031
Better not be tacky plastic crap.

I want THICC 90s metal. I want the case to be heavy enough 90% of zoomers will break their arms trying to lift it. I want a durable chonky boi.

He was also a chain smoker, that has much more to do with it. And there are less hazardous paint thinners than turpentine now
