I'm looking to move my Atom C2758 NAS to a rack mount case. I have a full 8x 2.5" hot swap enclosure that takes up 2 5.25" external bays, and I will want to expand so I need 2 more 5.25" free bays (total of 4).
2U cases seem too cramped for what I'm looking for, and preclude larger low-rpm fans. For the moment, this will be in a living area so noise is important to minimize.
I saw this, which looks like a great deal, but there's no way I can hope to keep that quiet.
Edit: I'm considering this chinese case, which apparently will support 120mm fans and 120mm fan PSUs. Or even buying that supermicro and taking it with me when I move in a few months with faith that I will have a spot for a rack.
