I was sitting and looking at cabinets and there seems to be alot of cabinet's that i like, especially from cooler master even at a to me resonable price theres som nice cabinets .

What i would like is a silent cabinet, with min 3x5.25" Bay for 2 dvd drives and a fan controller, i am gonna buy a modular psu before next year but if it has a good cable manage system i wouldn't mind ;), i have a atx mb and a very silent cooler master v8 cpu fan (it's big), i have seen Cooler master Haf 912 plus,Storm Enforcer,Sileo 500, Silencio 450(god price only 56€,73$ with delivery)Silencio 550.

My limited is 81€,105$

What would you recomend me to buy?

Is it possible to use usb 3.0 with a mb with only usb 2.0? (i know usb 3.0 is compatible with usb 1.1/2.0)

Can i rip 2 disc's at the same time? I have a resonable fast pc (i want to rip my cd collection)

A silent dvd drive for almost no money?

Is the deep silence 2 a better cabinet, because i think it might be and to my surprise the deep silence 2 is a bit cheaper then the silencer 1, have just read that the nzxt H2 has good cooling options where's silencer 1 isn't that good, but it seems that i can fit my cooler master in the silence 1

I am stil considering the Nanoxia deep silence 1 and even the Fractal Design Define R4 (could have had a white one used, less then 10 month old for half price but i don't have a car and it's heavy).

Is there any silent case out there with no doors for the dvd drive?

I just ordered the nanoxia deep silence 1 for only 98€ which is a very good price and lower then the corsair obsidian 550D and cooler master silencio 650 , it has 3 fans but is still silent, the airflow isn't so good but that's the same with the cooler master and the corsair , a fan controller (which the corsair dosn't have) for 2x3 fans, 2x2 usb (usb 2.0 & 3.0), space (185mm) for my huge cooler master v8 cpu cooler,the door open for me in the right way and is split in to 2 parts,doors think it's nice not to have to open a whole full size door to get to the dvd drive(s) and fan controller.
