[QUOTE="dribbler1, post: 884528, member: 126183"] Hi all, Just wondering what you guys think of the Grandia GD08.... It has massive storage space which is what I want for future proofing in terms of storage. I think it looks nice and im planning to add an internal IR receiver which will entail finding a good place that will look good from the outside as well as work from the inside then drilling a couple of holes. So here are some reviews: [media=youtube]-OwvSoQnhj4[/media] [url]http://www.3dgameman.com/reviews/1339/silverstone-grandia-gd08-htpc-case[/url] And here is the IR receiver I'm looking at: [url]http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/4-1-Backlit-Remote-IR-Receiver-and-Bracket-ASRock-CIR-Motherboards-/330743850721[/url] Or the other option is to use one of the 5.25 bays and the imon led display with remote: [url]http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/SOUNDGRAPH-IR-Receiver-Remote-Control-Black-IMON-VFD-Free-Shipping-/270847506264?pt=US_Remote_Controls_Pointers&hash=item3f0fc4f758[/url] is there any bad things I should know about this case... Im new to htpc's so some expert opinions would be appreciated... from what I can see it has good airflow... can use big fans.. has no limitations on motherboard or graphic card size and heaps of storage space... also love the easy removal of the filters. [SIZE=5][B]***EDIT***[/B][/SIZE] Actually I think this is the way to go.... found this on the SilverStone website under products/accessories/bay devices :) [url]http://www.silverstonetek.com/product.php?pid=39&area=en[/url] Here is what it would look like (this is Photoshopped) [IMG]http://i49.tinypic.com/qoxhua.jpg[/IMG] any opinions at all??? just one??? hmmm Cheers.
