Hello,

It is time to replace my trusty old 5 year old Antec P182. I hate the overall design of the HDD trays are at the bottom, it is an absolute PITA cable management and installation wise. Also, the front USB ports have been finicky this past year.

Newegg has the R2 for $50 shipped while the R4 is $75 shipped. Want to order soon in case they sell out.

I have 2 R4's already and LOVE them! However, how is the ARC Midi R2? I don't overclock at all and plan to retire my GTX260 to a fanless GPU or simply use onboard as I haven't gamed in several years now. I just want a nice quiet case with maximum 4 HDD's.

I am currently leaning towards the R4 since I heard it is a bit quieter, my bed is 3-4 feet from the case. Hopefully it will be quieter then the P182?

Thanks!
