I'm partial to Antec, but it's not a requirement. I don't really care how many drive bays there are and whatnot. I'm mainly interested in satisfying these requirements:
1. No PSU included.
2. 120mm fan mounts. Don't need fans included.
3. Front Firewire, USB, and at least Audio headphone jack.
4. A removeable mobo tray
5. No front door
Other addons would be nice (such as rubber grommets for quiet drives, clear side window, HDD fan mount, etc) but aren't required.
Some of the cases I've looked at are:
Sonata-- comes with a PSU that I don't need, has a front door, and doesn't have a removeable mobo tray.
3700AMB/BQE-- No front Firewire or Audio, no mobo tray, comes with PSU, no air filter (yeah, I know I didn't mention that above), has front door
Super Lanboy-- has front door, no Firewire or air filter, no mobo tray
P160-- ok, so this one fits all the requirements. From what I've read about the mobo tray, though, it doesn't seem very user-friendly. I was hoping that it would be like other trays in that you could simply unplug like 1 thing and be able to leave everything else plugged in.
As I said, I'm partial to Antec, but I am open to others.
