I'm looking a cases and some of the great colors they come in these days
and was wondering what you folks do about matching the colors of the
drives?

I've looked at some of the case manufacturers sites for colored bezels with
no luck.

I like the Antec Sonata with the door, but don't want to spend $100 on the
case.

What am I missing here?

Thanks.

Oddly enough, either returns hits that are useful, so I'm not the only
one who can't spell vinyl. ;-)

Check out http://www.harddrive.com/ for color components. They charge more
for the colors, but it you want to pay a small premium (and don't want to do
it yourself), it's worth it.

Either take the bezel and door off and paint it, or try www.colorcases.com
for pre-colored drives.

This is an annoying thing about making colored cases. Yes, the drives are no
big deal, but you can't do much with something like a SoundBlaster Audigy
drive bay box without losing the labels for the controls and ports.
Therefore, I stay away from them and stick with beige, black or silver.
