Comment on Looking for advice for media server storage expansion
priapus@sh.itjust.works 1 month agoThat’s a great suggestion, thank you! I looked at a few cases with more drive space but didn’t see any this inexpensive.

I use a Fractal Design Define R6 but their newer model is around the same price and can hold the same number of drives. They’re solid cases.

For your lack of SATA ports, you can either buy a new mobo (use PCPartPicker and filter by SATA ports) or an LSI SAS HBA card to gain additional SATA ports.

I didn’t know that case could fit that many drives! I’m a fan of Fractal Designs cases, have used and recommended them for a few gaming PCs before. Thanks for the recommendation!

Yeah it only comes with 6 trays, so you’ll need to order more, but you can fill out the entire front section with drives.
