I am a Fractal Design person when it comes to cases, but these look really nice.

It's too bad it will be impossible to build an new PC in the next 24-36 months.

Fractal Design makes nicer, more-expensive PC cases. That is kinda a good point


if you make PC components that don't involve upgrading an existing system


and few people are going to move the guts out of an existing system into a new one


2026 is gonna be a bad time.

I kind of wonder if there's a market for premium drive array enclosures. Like, for people who want to store a ton of drives, but not in a rack. Fans, air filter, USB interface, temperature sensor, settable power-on-after-power-loss switch. I'd think that that'd kinda be up a PC case manufacturer's alley, something that they could do with slack time


hell, they could do matching PC/drive array cases.
