I have been looking at 4 * Icy Dock MB-455SPF to convert 3 5.25" bays to
5 3.5" hotswap bays. To give me the 20 Hot swap bays in an Antec 1200
ultimate gamer case for £490. And I would be able to spread the cost out
a bit as I would not need all of the parts immediately.

The Antec 1200 ultimate gamer case has 12 5.25" bays at the front of it.
