No reasonable air space between the drives, tucked in at the most
convenient place in the box so that you can't access the cabling face

You might forgive 20 or so years of this shit if it was a motorbike,
submarine, fighter aircraft, lawn mower or satellite, -where size and
weight are tantamount to usability.
