May 12, 201511 yr Hi, I'm looking for a server case for as many drives as possible. Unfortunately I only have a wall plugged rack with a maximum depth of about 600mm. Most of the big server cases with 20+ drives has a depth <680mm. Instead I have a plenty of hight units available. Any advices or ideas? Possible solutions schould be deliverable in the EU. Thank you in advance!!! sincerely yours Frank
May 12, 201511 yr Can you not mount a "too deep" case such that it is sticking out the front? Or do you have a door that won't close if you do that?
May 12, 201511 yr haha i hear ya. i was "hoping" it didn't have a door or was hidden. Well, you're search continues. I'd also keep an eye out for good deals on a larger rack, and then sell yours [shrug]

Thank you in advance!!! sincerely yours Frank XCASE is the best source for EU residents, I think. This case is particularly nice, with an already included SATA/SAS expander: http://www.xcase.co.uk/4u-rackmount-server-cases/x-case-rm-424-ex-gen-ii-24-hotswap-bays-usb3-120mm-fans-rails-port-expander-backplane-sgpio-389-00-x-case.html XCASE had an 550mm unit, but I couldn't find it....
