I currently have a Jonsbo V2 (Dimension: 170 mm (W) x 200 mm (H) x 200 mm (D)).

However looking at adding 2 x 3.5" drives, along with 2 x 2.5" drives which I'll just attach to the inside of the case if no spare bays.

Currently the smallest case I can find which takes 2 x 3.5" drives is the Lian Li PC-Q01, however this isn't available locally so I'll need to import.

Anyone know of any other small cases that would fit the bill? Prefer Lian Li or similar minimal, brushed aluminium-style cases.

No need for graphics card, have an SFX PSU on hand from the Jonsbo case also.
 
I haven't found anything smaller than the M1 that supports more than one 3.5" drive.
 
The Streacom F7C Alpha is made of aluminium and has fllw. capacity as per their website:
Drive Capacity: 2 x 2.5″ + 2 x 3.5″ or 5 x 2.5″ or 3 x 2.5″ + 1 x 3.5″*
Drive Capacity F7C Optical: 1 x ODD + (1 x 2.5″ + 2 x 3.5″ or 4 x 2.5″ or 2 x 2.5″ + 1 x 3.5″)*

You'd need a PicoPSU for this one though.

Also both the Cooler Master Elite 110 and the Cooltek/Jonsbo V6 take in quite a lote of hard drives though don't look quite like brushed aluminium.
 
The Streacom options look great, looking at the FC8 and if I can get away with fanless or not.
 
I'm not sure if you're concerned most with volume or thickness, but if you aren't using a GFX card, or even if you have a small one, a SIlverstone RVZ02 or ML08 can hold two 3.5" drives as well as at least two 2.5".
