I think it has those. The phrasing in the article is weird, but it says those are real 5.25" drive bays, not just for looks.
"From the images, you might suspect that the FLP02 features usable 5.25-inch bays. These are very rare to find on cases in 2025, but they can still be useful for enthusiasts and tinkerers, with the potential to fit optical and removable drives, or for front mounting more I/O. The FLP02 has three such bays. Unused, you can just leave the dummy 5.25-inch floppy fascias in place."
I don't want them just to include empty 5 1/4" drive bays and some covers that look like floppy drives; I want them to fill those drive bays with actual functioning 5 1/4" floppy drives! 🤪
(Also, external 5 1/4" drive bays are absolutely still useful in 2025. You can get hot-swap bays for 3.5", 2.5", or I think maybe even M.2 drives now that can fit in them. It's great for a home server.)
