Ok... so now onto other points of relevancy....=C2=A0 (I believe Ralf and =
I have had our say... :D )
One of the nicest, inexpensive cases I found is a screwless case made by Ro=
sewill called the Challenger 3.
Everything is well-laid out.=C2=A0 The PSU is on the bottom with the approp=
riate filter, 3 lg, quiet fans on the front, rear, top.=C2=A0=20
The ability to put 5 3.5" drives in a side-to-side orientation via pop in r=
ails on the side, two more 2.5" drives in a std front to rear orientation a=
nd two 5.25" drives at the top, it's pretty useful.=C2=A0=20
The only shortcoming I find in the case is the length of the front USB cabl=
e not being able to reach all the way to the lower far corner.... (if you h=
ave a USB header closer than the most extreme distance from the upper front=
of the case, it's really a nice work of design and if all your components =
are quiet, the case is REALLY quiet.)
I bought the Challenger, Challenger 2 and now Challenger 3.... the original=
was a nice design and the subsequent versions have had minor improvements.=
=C2=A0 I have a total of 4 in the house.... two are v2 and two are v3.
One thing to remember, if you have adapter for SAS (yes, I have some) to pu=
t on the drive or any other adapter, it's a tight squeeze.=C2=A0 The case o=
n the 3.5" is narrow in that it accepts SATA/Molex connectors and a SATA ad=
apter easily.=C2=A0 Large adapters can be a really tight squeeze.=C2=A0 YMM=
V.
P.
PS - My new server case is a Nanoxia Deep Silence 1 v2.=C2=A0 It was one of=
the v2 previous.
