Need help finding a HDD cage


Recommended Posts

I am looking for a cage that can be mounted to the bottom of my Fractal Define R5 case. I want something that will hold 3-4 HDD in a vertical position. It doesn't have to be fancy, just solid. The problem is, I want one that will mount to the case, but also have a space on the bottom to fit a 120-140mm fan so air can be brought in from the bottom of the case, through the drives. I would also like it to be mostly open on the sides so the air coming from the front of the case though those HDD doesn't hit a wall. Hard to describe, but it looks like someone on here actually used pretty much the identical thing I am looking for being used pretty much how I am going to use it: 

He was using a caselabs cage, which is apparently impossible to find now. I think they went out of business? Even amazon has a link for it: https://uedata.amazon.com/CaseLabs-Standard-Double-MAGNUM-120mm/dp/B01BFNVFFE but it is unavailable.

 

Any suggestions on something similiar?

Thanks

Okay, the only thing I would suggest is this here:

I use this one in my server inside 3 5,25" bays. Maybe you can use this one with a little DIY. It is equipped with a fan. Just use an installation kit (something like that https://www.delock.com/produkte/1169_Installation-frame/18026/merkmale.html?setLanguage=en) to attach the cage on the bottom of the case.
