I'm terribly boring and can't stand all the daft lights on quite a few cases. I'm after something minimal - preferably with a door covering the drives. Literally a black box. But a nice looking one
I was looking at the Lian-Li V1100B or Antec P182 but they both appear to have their power switches behind the front doors - I just want one covering my drive bays, not something for any kind of "security".
Closest I've found is the Nexus Caterpillar but the build quality and the nicer internal features aren't there. Also not sure about the slidey door!
Any recommendations?
General requirements would be :
At least 3 5 1/4" ext bays
Motherboard tray
ATX
No frikkin side panel windows & lights
Quiet
Front door covering drives but not the power switch!
Decent HD mounting for 4+ 3.5" HDs
Build quality - want to keep this case for a good few years!
I really liked the Lian Li, but it's an expensive case to have to mod straight out of the box to get an accessible power switch!
I'm replacing an Arctic Cooling Silentium T1, which is just a bit small and the PSU is far too weedy for new i7 system.
Any suggestions? Please help in my quest for something that doesn't look like dog's vomit rendered in blue LEDs and CCFLS![]()
