Hello,

Can someone recommend a case with lots and lots of hard drive bays at a reasonable price?

I'm actually trying to clear out to make all my stuff easier to move, but actually I have too many loose drives that I could plug in if I had more bays.. maybe I should go shopping for another case too :P

I still recommend the ANTEC 1200, 3 racks x 3bay each with a 120mm fan in front and an additional rack for DVDs.

each rack is also removable from the front to make for easy loading.

ooo I like that. Might look into getting that, though I've promised myself not to buy any gadgets or electronics until I sort through my current collection and get rid of whatever I'm not using. I've got boxes full of shit I don't use anymore.

Thanks Zeus, this will be another good incentive to get me to finally sort out my boxes, though it's difficult as I'm so rarely home these days :?

let me know what stuff you've got in your magic not used boxes, I'm always looking for spare shit (;

Will do though I'm not sure how much great stuff is left as I have donated stuff in the past and I believe these boxes mainly have small gadgets such as mini-cameras for "surveillance", some of which have died in action and yet have been kept with the thought of repairing them. I'll let you know what I've got of stuff when I'm home next and have time to sort through the boxes!

Hi, I'm currently using the Antec 1200! It's a great case, I have 5 sata hdds installed in it.
It's big enough to fit my ati hd4870 + custom cooling.
