"Home" NAS mATX Cases w/HotSwap

[T_Minus]

What's everyone using for a HTPC / NAS combo or 'office based' NAS case for mATX builds?

Either with hot swap drives for 3.5 or 2.5 or 2, 5.25" for hot-swap install. Although, for mATX size would prefer 4 3.5" HotSwap bays.

I'm looking from basic/super-cheap to 150-250+ wild/spceific/built-nas enclosures.

Just curious what's out there people are happy with, or drool over that's not "rack mounted".

I'm using Chenbro - Products with a mini-ITX Rangeley Supermicro board. Basically silent.

Gave up on home NAS personally. Modded a Supermicro 846 with 120mm fans and an ATX PSU. Had I known of the quiet hotswap ones back in 2012 I would have used 920SQ units instead... Just got it racked in my 42U rack this year though. Before that it just sat on a shelf on a wire rack.

Hehe my personal NAS is in a 846 / AIO setup, this is for testing/backups/etc

I think I found enough I really like to hold me over now, lol.

Nothing like a PC Case (~5U) arriving, huge, but weight 1/5th of a 30" Beastly Steal 4U, lol.
