Does such a case exist?

Enclosures and acoustic damping to help quiet them.

we do custom builds at my work and use inwin matx cases for matx builds.

Asus makes an mATX tower with drive cages top to bottom:

I think this series is EOL.

Hello,

You can try the MiniP180, it has the basic layout you describe.

Hey, I work about a block away from the Fremont Antec office, I wasn't sure anyone was really working there or if it was just a shipping terminal. Cool!

I would like the case to be as small as possible. A plain bezel would be a plus but not necessary. Cheap/good value is a plus too but I can spend the money if it is worthwhile (but I don't have a habit of spending big money on computer cases).

The Antec case looks good but it is too large. I would have bought an ATX motherboard if I wanted a case that big.

The Asus case looks decent but I am having trouble finding it locally.

The Inwin case doesn't have enough drive bays.

I think I will just check out the local computer stores here for no-name cases hopefully something will show up.

If anyone still has any suggestions for brand name cases I'm willing to listen.
