Hello all,
I've been getting a lot of help from you guys already, now I could use a bit of help again, picking the correct case. I do not plan to build another server again for several years hopefully.
I'm currently going back and forth between a tower with 12 external 3.5" and filling it with hot-swap cages or a 4U rack case with hot-swap cages.
Tower, almost certain I'd be picking a LianLi A77B since I love that make.
4U, I am currently looking at 3 different cases, the Norco's I can't find in EU that will ship to Denmark.
But I found 3 similar cases:

The 2 from xcase cost the same, but one is not as deep as the other, I think for my basement the short one would be perfect. The case from inter-tech looks similar, and is cheaper but I don't understand German language
LianLi and adding the cages will cost about the same as an xcase 4U, so it's not so much the price I'm worried about, also noise is not an issue currently.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance
