Where can you buy a large a case (enough for 5-6 hard drives) that also is pretty sturdy, has the sliding rails that you screw on the drives, good cooling, for an atx mobo?

I bought a $20 cheap case from newegg and it sucks. Flimsy metal and having to screw and unscrew everytime I want to move something it's a pain.

I found these on NewEgg, any comments or other case suggestions?

This case is HUGE!!!! I mean it comes with 6 12mm fans and 1 8mm to keep ur 16 5.5 inch bays cool. you can fit just about anything in this case "Even a disliked relative".

Theirs another case like this one with a window and its all aluminum

This seems a bit more modder friendly, you can set up some nice uv lights and what cool uv water cooling tubes.

Hope these help.

Both run around 315-350 bucks

Those are a little too pricey for me. I'd rather just get a new video card for that price.. I'm looking for at least less than $100.

Plus I don't like xoxide.

I have an Antec SLK3700BQE, it's a great case.
The side mounted hard drive cage makes all the difference in the world to me.
Comes with ton's of features.
Only downside is that Antec doesn't make a windowed door for this model.

The Casetek is similar to several Enermax models. Also check out the Enermax Titanium..

Goto www.coolcases.com. I personally have a Chenbro Genie case, it has excellent construction (mad heavy) with drive rails and a removable HDD cage.

It is also a very roomy case. A++ in my book

I have an Antec Performance Plus 1080AMG and couldn't be more happy with it. It meets all of your requirements except one. Price. It cost around $130 I believe, but worth every penny.
