i just build my file sever into an old Ante P182 that uses to be for my wife gaming computer, and i just love the triple layers sides and general build quality of it.
However it is an very old design with lack good fan mounts for radaiator etc.

Is there any updated version of the Antec P182 that has the same thick quality build ?
 
Loved those old Antec cases. Used them for years in a about three different models. Have used this Phanteks case for the last couple of builds and have one on hand for the next build. Antec spoiled me to I/O ports/switches on the front of the case, not top or sides. Also the front drive bays and a lot of internal storage. The Enthoo Pro is a bit expensive but it is the only thing that puts me in mind of the old Antec cases. No cases anymore are heavy or solid metal. The Enthoo frame is solid metal. And most new cases all look just alike. The Enthoo makes for an easy build as the top and front come off. Also a type C I/O port on the front panel--the I/O ports are hidden behind the top front panel. Like that touch The closed side panel is cheaper than the glass side panel.

It is also a fairly heavy beast like the old Antecs were.
