I'm having these guys build me a cool and quiet NAS to be placed in the corner of my living room.

But as I don’t plan on having total data storage off-site (cloud based) any time soon, in the event of fire or other sudden disasters, I’d want a case that allows rapid front panel removal of all drives needed to rebuild the NAS. Are there any case brands who offer ATX and/or E-ATX cases with this important safety feature?
 
How many drives are we talking about here? You could look into IcyDock's modules and pick up a case with front panel 5.25" drive support. The case SteigerDynamics is showing is made by Fractal-Design, The Define 7, per my visual guestimation.

Might want to also mention the make and model of the motherboard.
