I modded an old SCSI case for my VFD as I don't have any more 5.25 bays in my HTPC. A little dremmeling on the back is all that was needed. I used a DC jack so I can power it for the computer or an external supply. (Note when working with metal case and these jack wire + to the center pin or else you will short the power supply) Pics:
