Good case for lots of hard drives (6+) with good cooling for the hard drives

James Mason · Feb 10, 2016

Hey guys,

Was hoping to get a recommendation for a good computer case that would let me mount like 6 or more HDDs but also have enough fans/fans in the right position to keep them cool. And would be nice if they were positioned for easy installation/removal, preferably screwless.

Thanks.

Edit: And I might take recommendation of HDDs that are well priced and good for backups and don't fail often. Mainly just wanting to build a storage space for videos with expandability.

Define r5 has lots of hard drive mounts, definitely more than 6, you could leave spaces between them- it also has fans in the front of the case

The Source 210 is dirt cheep and supports 8 drives. It supports two front 120mm fans to keep them cool. Not the greatest case ever, but its very nice for its $40 price tag.

A budget is really needed here, because there are a ton of cases that support 6 or more drives but with a massive price gap.

Eh budget isn't really as important as finding the right mix of quality case build, storage space, proper cooling for said storage space, and also silent operation/sound dampening.
