Title: Wanted Older Mid tower
Post by: tommolica on August 05, 2025, 06:02:11 PM
Looking for an older Mid tower that has provisions for 2 CD ROM drives and 2 floppy drives, can fit an Micro ATX mother board.
Please advise if you have seen one somewhere.
 Thanks very much Tom from Dunsford.

Sorry. Have two boxes but neither has that number of slots. Not even close.

Hi Tom. Not quite what you are looking for, but I have an old Dell Dimension 2400 desktop computer (Pentium 4).
2 cdrom/dvd drives, Specs on it says qty 2 5 1/4 bays and qty 1 3.5: external bays

I was going to be take it to the recycling drop off.

If it is of use to you, you are welcome to it. Still powers up.

Thanks for looking Harry.
Bill thanks for the offer, I will look and see if it is possible to fit a micro axt motherboard. even 1 floppy slot is better than none. If the mounting backplane in not aligned for the motherboard - then to the recycle. I cannot remember if that case will fit a standard size power supply. Those units were about 2002 to 2005 vintage or so. Will call you on the weekend . Thanks very much for now. Tom.
