Lian Li Replacement

MarkyMark · 3 Nov 2006 at 13:29

Hey all, Since Lian Li have stopped production of the 6077 (see below) I am looking for a replacement. Prefereably aluminum with a mimimum of 7 bays accessed externally as in the pic. Needs to be about the same height too coming in at no more than 460mm as they sit on a rack

So who can help me out then

why you replacing is there anything wrong with that?

Nope, its a great case, its just we need more of them and Lian Li have halted production lol

Antec Nine Hundred Ultimate Gaming case i think is the right size maybe 1cm higher

yeah had a look at this...unfortunately its a tad too high due to there being 9 bays and that tack stuck on top

Cheers anyway

oh the Lian-Li PC-101 Aluminum Mid Tower is 46cm high, but only has 5x5.25" drive bays

Defo need 7 bays. Putting in 2 caddies filled with hard drives (3 bays each) and then a cd drive

oh ok well that all i can see. how many hdds do you have cause the Lian-Li PC-101 Aluminum Mid Tower can hold quite a lot

nah its no problem, appreciate the help

Ok, will need to hold 10 drives in a raid format and 1 system drive. 11 in total. So as you can imagine removeable drives would be much easier should one fail than opening up the tin every time

Hmmm, a touch overkill

But damn, think of the drives I could fit in that

cheers for the input

However, the stacker is a bit too big but we definately need 7 bays

Will keep looking. Cheers all the same though
