Loving that yubikey with C → A adapter.

If you can find one, In-Win IW-PLV

I’m a fan of the fractal meshify 2 compact
It doesn’t have a 5.25 bay but a usb to sata adapter and some velcro tape is all you really need
Or just a usb dvd drive

Phanteks / Fractal have game, with the dumb tier drive count support [+ 5.25 bay(s)], tower-wise.

With the Define 7 / XLs, you’ll need to buy additional brackets, for accommodating somee additional hard drives [typically sold in pairs]. 7 has a single 5.25 bay, whereas the XL has two (2). Look at their manuals ahead of time, for drive / system arrangement idears
