Still waiting for the parts but got forward by selecting a box for the project. I seriously thought about a DIY box but lack of free time didn’t support it, so ready box it is.
The requirements are quite clear
- should fit with other AV stuff (42cm wide, max height about 18cm)
- as silent as possible…
- enough room
Read some reviews and browsed thru the selection of several dealers, however in the end the selection was easy enough.
Ended up ordering a Silverstone LC17B-C as it fulfilled the requirements, being a light overkill with the expansion possibilities (6 3.5″ HDD bays and 2 5.25″ bays).
