    Question Newbie Here!

    Greetings All,
    I'm thinking of buying a Shuttle Barebones kit from TigerDirect in the US -- Shuttle SN85G4v3 XPC Barebone Kit / AMD Athlon 64 3700+ $469.99 is a good price, I think, but they know nothing about it, like, where do you put a floppy drive. I can't seem to get anything showing the inside and drive bays.
    I have an nVidia e-GeForce with DVI and TV output I plan to use, and I want to put in two Seagate 250 Gb drives, and my Toshiba DVD writer. Does this make any sense to you guys? Is there some kind of door on the front that hides things?

    Thanks!

    It has 1 5.25inch drive bay

    Yeah. I figured that part out. It's weird that the mobo is listed as having a floppy controller. Guess I can get a USB external if I need it, but the system is going to be on network anyhow. The rest of it look okay?
