3.5" Drive Bay: What to Do?

[mis3]

I am interesting to know what you install in the 3.5-inch drive bay in your PC case?

I can think of 2 drives: floppy drive and multi-media drive.

I cannot even remember what was the last time I used a floppy disk. As for the multi-media drive, once it is installed, Windows will allocate 5 drive letters to all 5 media types. I do not use these medias at all.

Any other suggestions?

Maybe a fan controller? But I don't use my bay externally, but I think my case allows a hard drive internally in that slot.

I have a fan controller in one. I have a combo floppy/media reader also. I don't use floppies often, but they come in handy every now and then (F6 during WinXP install?).

How about a small lcd display? sys temps, uptime, etc.

Have any links? I was looking around for one, but I only saw 5.25" LCD's, and didn't feel like making my own.

Flash memory card readers can go in there.

I already have audio outputs, 2 USB and 1 firewire in the front panel (Antec P182).

I guess I will just install a floppy drive for BIOs update as well as the F6 XP install.

that is really classy lookin. If i could find a HD radio that was a 3.5" bay, and have a display near that i'd go for that for sure. Does anyone make a HD radio 3.5" bay by chance? Wouldnt be a bad idea.
