Ask JDR and JAMECO to get flyers. Power supply is huge enough to support at
least 4 FH HDs. My favorite is mini tower case as same height as CUBE from
JDR CASE-120 at $200 which is $50 more than JAMECO JE 2012(which is 13" not
12" height). If you are not quite familiar with hardware to install HD,
I'd like to recommend CASE-120 which is cozy enough to put three 5-1/4" drives.
