Does anyone here know if a case exists which allows you to swap hard drives easily?

What I would like to do on my next PC is have different systems installed on different hard drives. Then I can choose which system I want to run by inserting the relevant hard drive and booting up.

Thanks,
Russell.
 
russell im not sure what you mean by different system's

are you talking about different operating systems like windows and linux?

do you want to have win xp and vista?
 
Why do you need to swap them? Just change the boot order in the BIOS?

Otherwise, try the Coolermaster Stacker.

Yep. I would like to have completely separate systems (linux, windows, etc.) on different drives that I can swap in and out.
 
I would go with a decent looking mobile rack - maybe a ViPower from Sybaritic or similar - if you want to use three different operating systems, then probably purchase three of the same mobile racks and only use one tray fitted into the 5.25" bay - had a similar setup on my old system with 2 mobile trays/bays - one for the different OS's and the other for data HDD's...
