They do look to me like sturdier, better ventilated units than the cheap plastic ones I've used for years with no problem, so I'm optimistic. I have three CDROM drives in my new machine ( Toshiba IDE 32X, Plextor SCSI 8X audio extraction source drive and the Ricoh SCSI CDRW). I placed the drives in alternate bays. If I place them directly on top of each other there is almost no space between the drives. If I were to use a removable tray with vents on top of the drive I do not see how air will come out of the vents. I am interested in your observations once you receive the trays. Specifically if there is a mount for a small fan in the back. Zeuspaul
