I like the choice of SIlverstone for the case. I got one of those for my proxmox server. It was compact, but not so compact that I left a lot of skin and blood behind after mounting components. I will say that other manufacturers (like Fractal Design just seem to understand how to design an interior a lot better, though.

I also like the case and since the motherboard has power integrated and the CPU is in theory passively cooled, it will be quite empty since I don’t have to stuff a PSU/GPU inside it. Initially, I wanted to get the Fractal Ridge but it was to long for the opening in the cupboard where it was going to sit. The SG13 seemed like the best choice, size wise and the 2 drives fit good. I am planning on putting a 80mm fan at the back which would bring somewhat limited fresh air and on the front a 120mm fan as exhaust to remove heat from the mobo/hdds.
