At the front of the case there are 10 drive bays. All of these can be used for optical drives, but off the bat the first 6 will work without having to remove hard drive trays inside. There is single bezel cover that supports a 3.5-inch external drive as well. All of the bezel covers easily come off and they have small filters on them to keep dust out of your case.
