(I can't receive your email Marlene, probably something in your
headers).

You can get 80cm filters that fit over the 80cm (3.15") case
fans.  Problem is, you have to take the case apart to get to
many of them in order to clean the filter.  I use a case with a
front "dust cover", it's a complete hinged door that covers the
entire front of the case where the bays are.  It still has to
suck air from the ventilation holes in *it*, so I put some
black foam filter material on the front (since the case is
black) and they are much easier to clean that having to go
inside of the case and removing the fans to clean those type
filters.  There are also 5.25" drive bay coolers that come with
filters so these would be more desirable over drive bay coolers
with no filters.  So, if you use the 80cm type fans you can get
filters for them.  Without knowing the layout of your cases or
seeing a photo of them, it's hard to say.  If you have front
case fans and the ONLY air intake is at the bottom front of the
case, then you simply put some gauze in that hole and replace
it every once in a while.

Hi, Marlene,
There may be enclosures, but be sure that they have enough
potential for air
circulation to allow your system fans to do their job properly.
