[QUOTE="kiwijunglist, post: 638659, member: 76888"] I don't recommend silverstone cases (I own Silverstone LC16-MR), reason being is the remote / vfd have crap compatibility, however if you buy one with the view that you may throw away the remote and the vfd has poor driver support then they are ok cases. The newer silverstone cases have an MCE compatible receiver, which may be better. Don't forget you can also buy adapter that lets you mount 3 x 3.5" drives in 2 x 5.25" bays. I really like antec NSK2400 / NSK2480 but it only has 2 x 5.25 + 2 x 3.5 bays. [url]http://www.silentpcreview.com/Antec_NSK2400_Fusion[/url] Also consider the antec P180/P181/P182/P183 it can be placed on it's side and you can use the cd drive mounted in the vertical position. It was designed with the help of people from SPCR so it's uber quiet It takes 6 x internal 3.5" HDD and externally it has an additional 4 x 5.25" and 1 x 3.5" (latest version P183 also takes 2x2.5" SSD) It takes 120mm fans, and has fan filters that are easily removable for cleaning without pulling the case apart. Also consider Antec Mini P180 if you have mATX case. [/QUOTE]
