Recommend me a case for this Conroe Build.

Link to wish list doesn't work.

Silverstone Temjin 4 (SST-Tj04) or 5 (SST-TJ05). Thermaltake Armor Jr. Aerocool CoolView (super deal thru end of month - rebates).

And there is a nice oval window kit available out there so anything can have a window. So check the Rosewill, Mystique 362, XClio A380 threads in this section. I just bumped 'em so they should all be in the first couple of pages.

Another thing... I want a lot of internal drives for my hard drives. Like around 6 minimum because I might add more.

That case you linked me to, viramor, the Lian LI, is pretty sexy. I hadn't liked many of the Lian Li's I've seen, but that one is cool. But it's kind of on the expensive side.
 
The Aerocool CoolView has only two fixed bays for HDDs, but it has TEN 5" bays. There are drive cages available that hold 3 HDDs in two 5" bays or 4 HDDs in three 5" bays (and each cage has its own cooling fan) - CoolerMaster sells a cage and Lian Li sells several models in the $20. to $35. range - see my review of the CM cage (w/ an overview of others) here: http://www.techimo.com/reviews/ . The Aerocool CoolView/Masstige (Bay Dream) are basically CM Stackers for less money. The CV is discontinued and has a rebate on it thru EOM. Disappearing quickly.

With a number of drives, you may want to run two PSUs (more economical than one really big one) - the original CM Stacker (STC-T01) is designed to hold two PSUs and there are sales and rebates on them all over this month - see my thread on them in the HOT DEALS section. Has ten 5" bays and comes with one 4 HDD cage (as mentioned earlier) that takes up three 5" bays.

The Silverstone Temjin 5 holds 8 HDDs (6 in the rack plus two on the arm) plus four 5" bays. While the TJ06 has 6 HDDs in the rack plus five 5" bays (the Aerocool Spiral Galaxies is the same case for less money).

Finally the XClio A380 is supposed to have 7 HDD bays plus five 5" bays.
