Does anyone know of any black SFF cases that would be perfect for a WHS setup?

This is what i want..
1. Case that has 1x120fan in front blowing across hard drives.
2. Black with grill in front for perfect airflow.
3. Ability to hold at least 4 hardrives in front of fan mentioned about.


This is readily available in mid tower cases, but have yet to see any SFF cases like that, most of them are meant for a "couple" of hardrives even then cooling is questionable at best.

Anyone got some recommendations?

does it have to be ssf? probably not going to find something in that size that would take 4 drives - maybe if they were 2.5 inch drives - edit - at least in the small cases - how about something like this - smaller fan, i have one on order for a sometimes portable computer (not using the included ps) but this will hold 4 hd's

How about the coolermaster centurion case - nice looking mid tower , easily put 4 drives in there, I think only get a 80mm fans in front but the case has good cooling overall - I am happy with mine, especially for the price

You know I was thinking about that centurion case to, I have one on main PC now, great airflow with grill in front. I was just wondering if they had something smaller is all. Be cool if they had a centurion that was smaller for MicoATX boards :p

That case though you linked to does look spiffy.
