My Antec SLK3000 case has slideout 3.5" bays.
They use a [__] slide that goes into each bay and locks. The drives mount from below using the 4 universal drive mounting screws.
I want to get a NoVibes III.
Any comments on how this would mount or not mount? none of the reviews show it in a modern case with rails and sliding trays.

The NoVibes III doesn't appear to have the bottom mounting holes you're looking for, but you could probably just zip-tie it in place. If that doesn't appeal to you, you shouldn't have too much trouble building your own suspension system; take a look around the gallery to see how much creativity has been put into that solution.

creativity and my business and school work crashing to the floor of the case can all go suck it.
I like the zip tie idea however. That is interesting and quite strong. I have heavy guage zip ties.

I still havent figured out where to put this boy in my case. I havent bought it yet. I have 5 1/4 bays open, but no cooling where they lie. complicated stuff.
