I’m looking for a full tower case with very good air flow and low noise. Does anybody know anything about the XCLIO WTBK Advanced case. I’m kind or leery of buying a case with no reviews to go by.

I've got an Antec 900 now and like the airflow but it is a little small for all the drives I have stuffed in it.

I’d like to keep the price at around $150 + shipping.
 
the antec is an amazing case as far as airflow and noise, one of my buddies has been running with it with no issue and amazing air flow keeping a environment temp between 19 C and the highest its gotten under heavy load is 30C.
he has a pretty beefy system so i know that the air flow isn't just low system specs. if you dont want that one there are a good half a dozen more at xoxide.
 
Your best bet would probably be a silverstone TJ07, but that's not exactly the cost-effective option...

Other cases to look at:
CM stacker 832
CM cosmos

and that one in your OP is pretty good too, if not a little gaudy.
 
The CM Cosmos looks like a decent choice but several of the reviews on Newegg said the fans don't move a lot of air. Some complaints about hard drive cooling being poor.

The Silverstone TJ07 looks great but is $300.

XCLIO is looking good so far. 2 reviews on Newegg of the silver case of the same model say it is a good case.
 
Antec P180, P182. Solo doesn't have as good as airflow but silences HDDs better.
