The harddrive bays are removable(3 screws) but would require the removal of the case shell (4 screws). No external bay options.

I assume you have to mount all HD's from inside this thing, no front mounts judging from the pictures? I don't need hot swap bays, but seriously you need to be able to pull these out from the front...

I was comparing the same cases and went with the node 304. It's layout is better and can fit larger cpu coolers. It does fit a full sized atx power supply.

This company makes really good cases and have great customer service. Just set up my R4 and its perfect. If you need a case for a ITX build this is a great way to go.

You need to stop doing your own research, because you are 100% wrong and possibly don't even know the terms at hand, nor do you reference any of the sources you "researched".

Can i set this up as both a NAS and HTPC? Any comments from experts out there?
Also what CPU/RAM combo would your recommend?
Or should I just buy a separated NAS, is that more reliable?
