I'm looking for a case that will allow me to store unused HDD drives when I'm not using them so that they don't gather dust, dirt and other unwanted substances in order to be maintained properly. I once saw a VHS-like case on a Japanese gadget page by accident by cat recall the bookmark. Anyway it was of plastic shelling, like the ones used to stores VHS tapes, only it was custom-fitted for 3.5' HDDs. Do you happen to have a suggestion for this product and where it is commercially available?

Maybe something like that? No idea what kind of quality they are, but the price is alright... $3 each if you buy a bunch, free shipping.

2.5 inch ones:
