Need a case that will hold 4 HDDs and 2 DVD drives

[Participant]

Hi peeps, as far as cases go I'm a complete noob. I still have the basic midi tower that came with my PC from when I was 18.

I'm wondering if you can help me with a couple of things. I have always been reluctant to spend money on a fancy case as I go for function over form almost always. What are the benefits of going for a fantastic case, and why would I bother investing £100 in something that might be just as good as my basic generic tower?

Secondly, which modern cases are out there that could handle two WD 120Gb drives for mass storage as well as two WD Raptors 74Gb in RAID 0 for windows / games?

Your help is much appreciated.

Thanks for dropping some names by me, my budget depends on the benefits, as I'm stil not what they are as such. I suppose I'm still trying to work out whether or not the cooling / noise benefits will really be that much better than my basic white generic case.

Were I to buy a new case I'd preferably be spending £50-£75 or thereabouts.
