Enlight cases (http://www.enlightcorp.com/) are quite excellent. I
purchased one about two years ago after reading several
recommendations for them in a.c.h.p-h. It is very sturdy, is
predrilled to accept two additional fans (one in front and one above
the power supply). It has four internal drive bays, four 5.25"
external bays, and one 3.5" internal bay. On the AT version, which I
have, there are eight expansion slots and room to mount serial and
parallel ports without blocking slots.

The case is modular, allowing you to easily remove and replace the
cover, all the drives except the 3.5" external and one of the internal
bays, and even the motherboard without having to remove/insert screws.


On the down side, they require rails on the drives for this, but at
least rails for all the bays are included, and installing them on the
drives is no more difficult than installing a drive in other cases.
Also, I wish they had another 3.5" external bay and one less 5.25" so
I wouldn't need my current two bezels (one for my tape drive and one
for my Zip drive), but that's only a minor inconvenience.
