Hmmm... Not sure if the 4500 series dells are compatible with the 2500 series. It might be possible. I would have to see the 4500 series case before I could be absolutely possitive though. I think it will be difficult to find a dell case used unless you can find one on ebay or something. You might have better luck with my case mod idea if you have the room. You could fabricate your own bracket and utilize the space to support more hdd drives, thus freeing up the 5 1/2" bays needed for your rom drives. I have seen this done before and you can even have the hdd drives gap 1/16" between them with the use of a fan to keep them cool. I was amazed when I saw this for the first time cause I never seen 5 hard drives and 2 rom drives in a mid tower case before. You could even use open air architecture to help keep the heat down by leaving the side panel off. It would be easier to dust off periodically as well.
