United KingdomThis is a superb starting point for a custom NAS build. It's solidly built and the 8-bay drive cage has decent alignment. My primary criticism is the cooling solution. The suggested Seasonic power supply is almost silent but the included pair of 80mm fans are absolute screamers. This is especially annoying as there is room for a much larger (and quieter) 120mm fan in the back panel, so a half hour with an angle grinder and dremel soon allowed one, plus a 120mm radiator, to be fitted. Result is near silence with similar air flow. The case would be SO much better out of the box if a 120mm fan mount was included. I'm sure my warranty is now well and truely void, but it was worth it for the noise reduction. Noise in stock form aside, this is a superb case and about the only one I could find that had both mATX board support and 8 bays.
