I need a new case as well... And figure this thread is where to ask.

Have: p180 with GTX260, 6x 1tb's and 2x 500's (8 Drives) with a CM 4-in-3 bay sitting in the 5 1/4 bays. I want to run another 2 x 1tb's so I can use all the ports on my raid card.

The data is from recorded video sessions at conferences thats edited and then burnt to dvd/cd. I still would like to keep a copy of each conference.



So, without going for an external NAS what case thats plain and quiet can hold 10 drives, 1 cdrom and a gtx 260?

The 343 is a nice case, I've never worked with one but have seen one in person and it's a nice case, was bigger than I'd thought looking at photos but still a well put together case.

Only other options that still don't even come close that I can think of would be cases like the Lian Li A20 (7 x 5.25" and 8x 3.5") and A/B70 (5 x 5.25" and 10 x 3.5").

The Lian Li A/B70 sounds right for you.
