I'm searching for a case for a new system. I'm looking for a
mid-tower ATX case with as many slots as possible(10-11 would be
great). I would like to have 120mm fans and the front fan mounted in
front of the hard drive slots. A 80 or 120 mm top exhaust fan would
be helpful. I'm not interested in "see through" panels or "lighting
effects," but that isn't a deal breaker. Drive rails and/or removable
drive bays would be good. Removable mother board carrier would be a
plus, but not necessary. A 450-550 watt PS would also be a plus, but
not necessary.
Is there such a box out there?

Thanks for any suggestions.

For quality and good cooling I don't think you can beat one of the
original-style Cooler Master cases, however I don't like their low-end
cases. This one would be my choice:

It has two 80mm fans directly in front of the hard drives, rear and top fans
also. This new version has front mount USB, Firewire and audio connections.
Look for a black version on some sites. Also, for any case with this may
fans, a good fan controller is a good idea if you are sensitive to the noise
level.
