My antec 300 case has no external 3.5 inch bay which was fine until I wanted to use a small fan controller. I struggled to find a solution. Here is the one I eventually found. It is cheap and it works fine allowing simple installation of a 3.5 inch external devise in a larger slot.

It works but doesn't fit flush. If you aren't too fussy then this is good value for money, but if you have spent a bit on the rest of the system you are likely to be disappointed.

Colour match - not quite black 7/10
Finish - plastic 7/10
Fit - 5/10

Yes, the image is misleading, but if you read the text it does say that it is all plastic. There's no problem with this product, it does exactly what it is supposed to do. I suppose the one downside of it being plastic is that the screws are self threading and if you take it out a number of times you might end up with loose screws. Generally, these things aren't removed. If you're looking for a holder for a floppy drive or a card reader, then this will do the job.

The one i received is black, but the front panel is textured slightly. My case is actually smooth, but I'm not bothered about the mismatch. If you have a glossy case, this might look out of place.

The picture shown of this item suggests a metal back and black faceplate of undetermined material. But instead, it is in fact one piece of extruded black plastic. That in itself is misleading and a reason to avoid the product. But it's worse than that.
Being plastic, the machining is imprecise, so it does not quite fit in a standard bay, slightly fouling the bay above. Also being plastic, the material is necessarily much thicker than metal would be, too thick for standard computer bolts to pass through. As a result, the supplied extended self-tapping screws must be used. So don't lose the screws or this thing is useless, which it would not be if it were as described.
Had I known this, I would have avoided it. It does the job, but only just, only by my engineering allowances for its shoddy quality, and not in the way I wanted the job done. Put simply, this item is not as advertised. To me, that makes it fraudulent. Such behaviour gets mail order a bad name. So this item should be avoided to punish the lie and demonstrate that misrepresentation is not acceptable.

As mentioned in some other reviews, the finish isn't great. Some trimming with a craft knife was required but at least the gaps weren't too big.

its pretty simple fits any 3.5 inch card reader to fan controller, the only negative side is its very shiny plastic if you're fussy about color that goes with your computer this might just annoy you, other than that its pretty descent.
