could you not put it at the front or at the back,if it has cages it might be easyer if not maybe just lying one down overe the HDD or suspended up above them

It depends where abouts you want it buddy...Im guessing from the frnt blowing back into the case? Depends on the case aswell. Any more info, matey?

If it were me, I'd get something along the lines of a scythe 120mm unit...not great, but it gives you an idea of what im thinking...

I would have linked you but I cant as I havent posted 15 times yet...

LianLi have a 5.25" mount for 120mm fans, uses 3 drives.

Make sure you have your airflow from front to back and always have more exhaust than intake.

 

[iceie]

why is that? for more exhaust ?

 

[monkey7]

If you put in more air than is being exhausted you will get a positive pressure. This means (in theory) more dust problems and possibly heat pockets inside the case.
