Anybody actually own a server cube case?

The more I see the YY cube cases, particularly in black, the more I want one.
Anyone have this, if so can you post your opinions? Good ventilation, easy access, plenty of room...etc.?

Thanks

I have the cube case, and I love it! The CPU side has room for anything you'd want to put in there. The drive side has room for 8 3.5" drives in the rear, and 6 5.25" devices in the front (two floppy slots also). The CPU side has a 90cm fan blowing in the front while the drive side has two 80cm fans directly behind the hard drives blowing out. Others had mentioned that the CPU side might run a bit warm, so I added a slot fan. It draws warm air directly from the CPU and exhausts it.

I've got a 1.4g Athlon, two 40GB seagate drives, DVD, CD-RW, 350W PS, and it runs great. I just received replacement Panasonic fans to lower the noise level.

Better make those fans 8cm and 9cm. It might be tough to fit an 80cm fan in ANY case...

Thanks for the info.
