I have a Sonata I and a Sonata II. Both use the same drive rail system.
No problems mounting several different 5 1/4 devices. Assuming your drive
cage isn't bent of damaged the drives can be installed easily.

Thanks -- I concluded that the drive bays were warped or something and
exchanged it for an identical Sonata II. Got the drives into the new case
okay, but within 24 hours the Power supply fan failed! So I have to lug
it back to the store *again*! Is Antec not as terrific as I thought, or
am I just having bad luck? What other PC cases are good? (I need one with
at least a 450W PSU.)

That is a strange run of bad luck, or you are shopping at a bargain outlet
that got a really good deal on some "seconds".
The case is one of the best you will find. The power supply is average to
good. Personally, I switch out the power supplies and upgrade to Seasonic,
then sell the Antec supply on E-bay.
