I think will take the extra DVD Drive as he remind me one things, IDE things, since I'm not sure now a days MoBo still got IDE port or not. So what do you think?
btw, additional 12cm fan put where?

You can get SATA to IDE converter for less than RM20.

There is extra fan slots inside the case. PC these days needs 1 intake, 1 exhaust for better cooling.
