    OK, My Lian Li just isn't cutting it anymore. It's a lovely case, but I have run out of room for expansion and really can't be bothered buying a 6tb hard drive and transferring everything, so I think a new case is the way to go.

    Needs :-

    space for 7 3.5" HDD's and2 SSD's
    good cooling but very quiet
    Tall....very tall. Due to the way my room is set up, I have to have the monitor, a 24" Dell Behemoth, on top of the case, which sits on the floor, while I sit in an armchair so it also needs to be flat and featureless on top.

    Would be nice :-

    all mod cons, such as USB3 (as many as poss)
    look nice
    under £80


    I realise this is a tall order, but can any of you think of something suitable?

    TIA

    The first one to spring to mind is the Fractal Arc Midi R2. Up to 8 HDDs, 2 SSDs and flat on top (mesh).

    Antec P100, P280. Fractal Design Define R4/R5. Nanoxia Deep Silence 1/2/5/6 (last two probably way out of budget).
