ATX Full tower help please
I'm looking to build a second gaming system our home and like what dad built for us I want to use a full tower but I need one with a space for a DVD writer.
I wonder if anyone here can help me track one down please?
Thanks.
P.S. Sorry I have not posted at all recently I've spent 2 and a half months in hospital fighting sepsis.

Check the manufacturers website and look out for any manuals. There may be restrictions, eg Fans in the top or front may block access.
You could always go for an external DVD writer.

Re: ATX Full tower help please
My new pc is my first without any kind of DVD/Writer drives. If at some point I'd will need one I'd just get a USB one but I doubt I'd ever need one again. Everything now is USB sticks and external drives.

There is room for 2 behind the motherboard on the rear. You would be better off with Nvme drives if building from new though

Re: ATX Full tower help please
If you go to one of the custom builder sites and build up a PC and select an internal drive most will guide you to change your case and suggest what you can use. Maybe a bit round about way of doing it but saves reading through lots of data sheets. And it's fun seeing how expensive you can go.
