I need a computer case, but have some requirements that make finding a case rather difficult. In fact, I've not even been able to find one, so am hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
The most important thing I need a case to have is at least 2 x 5.25" bays. Since I do quite a lot of work with optical media from time to time, I don't really want to have to have external devices. Moreover, the drives need to connect to a SATA interface as the commands I'm sending to them won't work over USB. So internal drives are my only option.
Secondly, there needs to be enough space for at least 5 x 3.5" mechanical disks. 4 for a RAID-6 array and a final disk scratch disk device.
I can find no cases that can give me the above requirements. Where am I going wrong?
