From the front the HD's are on the right hand side with just the motherboard on the left.
Is a Chenbro Case rebadged. Used to work there (networking not server side) when these cases were being sold. They were about £300 when new, for the cases with the brackets and fittings.

Come on, stick a proper dual socket work station EATX thing setup in there, make the case do some work!

Mod it and you'll have a case just right those 5780 X2's.

put multiple mini-itx mobo's in there and claim this is REAL server virtualisation and go on to become VMWares biggest competitor
Shift the PSU(s) to the top, and you can fit 4 Mini-ITX motherboards in it - although then case flow might be an issue seeing as it only has room for one 80mm fan in the back
Is it just me, or does that actually have a removable motherboard tray? Why would you need one, really? (I've never seen a computer quite so big, my first computer was a Socket A 440MHz job, and it was normal sized)
Have a go at budget parallel computing, with multiple mobos instead of a dual socket board.

That case is a thing of beauty!
15+ HDD bays! lol!
Tbh, if/when I get my own place and want to hide my server out to way in a cupboard or somewhere, something like this might be an idea. No shortage of HDD space and likely cheap/free from places where there just clogging up space.
