16cm deep 5.25" DVD-RW drive non-slimline ?
Is there any IDE or SATA DVD-RW/Blueray combi optical drive measuring no more than 16cm deep? Or not more than 16cm deep at the base if it has a raised upper section that continued past 16cm (see picture below for what I'm getting at)
I suspect I'm going to have to look at a slimline option and a drive bay adapter. Then also need suggestions for bay adapters that have a solid front except for the hole for optical drive. Preferrably silver.
I'm not considering cutting anything. As I can fit a raised bump in the back area of optical bay to prevent drive resting on passive heatsink.

Doesn't look like there's any under 17cm deep, so slimline option it is. At leats I can pick a slot loading slimline drive if I fancy it.
Can anyone recommend a single slimline to 5.25" bay adapter? Not found any apart from the Plextor 2x optical unit and a unbranded 2x optical unit not in stock at Kustompc. Preferably silver, or a material that accepts spray paint easily.
