Antec Darkfleet series. PM me your mail id - I can send you over Antec's Cabinet brochure+price list for India.
 
Here you go:-











This guy is the national distributor/importer of Antec products. I bought my Coolermaster USP 100 from him (he didn't have Antec 200/Antec 300 in stock). He's a knowledgeable and friendly guy and I believe the pricing is good as well.
 
The DarkFleet series is a bit too radical for my taste :P

In any case, while it does give you access to all the 3.5" drive bays, from what I see I think only one or two can be easily swapped. The others would still need to have the SATA cable/power connector hooked up, right?

So far the Lian-Li EX-H34 drive rack seems right.

If only there was a HTPC case with 3 5.25" bays :(
 
^^ I think only the Obsidian 800D from Corsair has that option (4 Hot swap + 2 regular). 800D is costly (16k), big, heavy and looks more well suited for water cooling and less for air cooling. The 700D is same as 800D minus the hot swap and acrylic window in side panel. The 700D does have sideways access to HDD which though not as convenient as hot swap does still provide easy access to hdd.

I think Hot swap drive rack is the best option in this case.

If you don't need 3 bay rack, you can also get single bay hot swap racks from other manufacturers, however you will need to import them via eBay Global buy or some other source.
