    There are cases out there that does not require modification to fit both a mATX and mITX boards. Are you looking for a small enclosure or somewhere around a mid tower size? Is this going to be a gaming system? or more like a media center?

    Re: Looking for a new case

    Fitting and mATX and mITX system with a large complement of drives is something I can only imagine two cases doing, one being the Azza Fusion 4000 and the other; the Cooler Master HAF Stacker 935.

    Theoretically, you could probably fit a whole mITX system with its case inside the Corsair 900D, but I'm not sure that counts as 'modding'... or 'a case'.

    Re: Looking for a new case

    See my sig for a bit of an example of whats possible with the Stacker 935, you'd need another 915 to do it properly with two systems though. You might also struggle for drive bays, particularly if you want a big gpu in the mitx one. That being said, (and you may have a sensible reason). 12 drives in one case that is also your main gaming system seems like it needs rationalising some. What if a mains fault fries both? assuming your everything else rig isn't folding or something it can probably live headless in a cupboard with no fans and just WC your main pc.
