Fractal Arc Mini, all 7 drives test

Post by deed02392 » Fri May 25, 2012 3:20 am

Hi, I am building a file server, most likely with this case. It will have 6 3.5" HDDs and 1 2.5" SSD.

Now I know it can physically accommodate all these drives but someone previously suggested against it due to its "open design". I'm not really sure what that means so I am making a thread to ask if anyone has tried this case with all drive bays occupied (or close enough) and will share what they think of it.

Does it cope with the vibration? Does it damp noise well enough? Does it keep them all cool enough?

Thanks.
