Best Case For < $40

[The Doc]

I'm just looking for a cheap case that I plan on using for a file server. It doesn't need to be anything fancy, it just has to hold my components. Any suggetions?

try to find a coolermaster centurion 5 on sale. thats most likely your best bet for a cheap, quality case.

$39.99 + no shipping charge. and it's bigger than hell (great for a file server).

Not much to look at though, but that's what case modding is for.

I've got a 24" tall Just4PC case that I got from tigerdirect. I would send it to you if you paid the shipping. I did cut a 80mm hole in the side for an intake. I could take some pics if you want. It is beige. all steel and does have a slide out mobo tray. I think it is one ext. floppy drive hole, five ext. 5 1/4" bays. Can't remember how many internals.

I got the same case for a modding project... It's going to be sweet. The case is like a giant blank canvas... ready to be manipulated.

They are definitely worth the $40 up front, after rebate they are a very good deal.

I bought this one for my media server -

I liked the 5 side-facing drive bays. It has 120mm fans front and rear, and a filter on the intake.
