Have new computer case coming

ManofGod

It sure does get quiet in here sometimes, I can almost hear my echo. Well, anyways, I have a new computer case coming and I am happy:

The case is larger than my Centurion 5 that I have used over the past 5 years or so. Also, with the internal sound dampening, it should make things quite a bit quieter without heating things up.

Looks like it's geared for the home server market. Plenty of hard drive space for a jbod raid set up. Also only 2 external 5.25 bays, which is fine for a server but somewhat lacking for a media/gamer build. I need at least four 5.25 externals (2 optical, 1 bay box, 1 drawer).

Did you get the all black or the silver front?

The all black one was good for me. As far as the external drive bays go, even one is enough since I only have a one bluray drive anyways. Personally I like the idea of quietness and lots of space to fit my 2 x HD 6950's. :)

So, are you gonna be upgrading any other parts or are you just transferring all your "old" parts to the new case?

If I had that, I'd stick every old working harddrive I had in it to fill all 8 internal bays and have one whopper of a Raid drive.

Joe,

I've been using one of those for my ESXi box for the last year or so. It's a great case. Great cooling and very quiet. You'll love the cable management features.
