hello,

i need to build a compact NAS that can support at least 4 3.5" HDDs and 3-4 U.2 SSDs, i need it to have front air intake

i have spent the last 3 days looking online, but the best candidate is the Thermaltake Core G3, BUT, that case uses a stupid verticle GPU mount which makes all but 1 PCI E slot useless.

i'm going to be using an Asrock X399M Tachi and will be using at least 2 PCI E slots, possibly all 3. a basic 1 slot GPU and a U.2 controller. also thinking about plugging in an intel X550-T2 in there, still undecided.

thanks.

Have you looked at the fractal design node 804. It has a 120mm front intake, and 10+ 3.5" drive bays. I'm not sure about the GPU mounting configuration though.
