[QUOTE="Lehmden, post: 1057912, member: 109222"] Hi. This case looks good for sure. But I have a little worry about mounting HDD upside down. If you only use SSD, so no problem, but HDD has a lot shorter lifetime if they are mounted upside down. HDD should be mounted upside up or in an 90° angle, but never upside down. And you don't have free air above the drives, which will produce an amount of heat not to be forgotten. If this would be my project I would add a "sledge" under the MB mounting plate with an extra cm in height to mount HDD upside up and with a little space above to have some air cooling them...
