This case has five external 5 ¼” bays and five internal 3 ½” bays for hard disk drives. They all use screwless mechanisms to hold disk drives. The mechanisms used on the 5 ¼” bays are based on a plastic latch that simply needs to be slid and locked to hold the drive in place, as shown in Figure 14.

The mechanisms used with the hard disk drives are different. You need to install two rulers to the hard disk drive and then slide the drive in the bay.

Gladiator 600 comes with a 5 ¼”-to-3 ½” adapter that allows you to convert any 5 ¼” bay in a 3 ½” bay. This adapter allows the installation of external 3 ½” devices like floppy disk drives and memory card readers and also the installation of hard disk drives, since the adapter has the necessary holes for installing hard drives. This way you can have up to six hard drives on Gladiator 600.
