I'm confident...I have an Antec SX1030B SOHO File Server case and it's doing great. I've had it for exactly 1 year and still superb. There are 10 total drive bays 6 external, 4 internal. An 80mm fan placed in the front cools that bay where 2 HD can reside making sure your HD stays cool. Antec does a good job as far as the case mechanics are concerned. I'd atleast consider them If I were u.
I'll do some more research later on, but that's just my $0.02 for now... |

|

I currently have a Chieftec matrix entry level server case. I'll tell you one thing...
This bad boy has awesome air circulation. Compared to the enermax mid tower i was using, my temp dropped 16 C.. Believe it!!
I was astonished at the change. My ambient case temp dropped to 22 C, my cpu to 31C, and my HDD to 26.. Thats great temps for 4 80mm ThermalTake smart fans. I also rocked the cobalt 3 with a termaltake hardcano HDD cooler, and it runs now at 23 C... Waater cooling is also an option for em, get a cheap set up, and just run it to your HDD. Safer if you fear the option, but I bet your temps would be close to 19 or 20 C.
