I want to build an HTPC as cheap and small as possible with some parts I already have and a single 3.5" hard drive.

I have:
i5-3470
4gb ram one stick desktop size
WD 3.5" hard drive SATA III
M.2 PCI SSD

Does anyone know of small cases that can fit all of this together?

What motherboard? That more than anything determines the size.

Plenty of ITX cases that support 3.5" drives. I have an older version of the Silverstone Sugo. Actually have a 2.5" drive and two 3.5" drives (I hung the second 3.5" drive off the first one with some hand made metal brackets)

If you have a MicroATX motherboard, there are some desktop models still around. Just depends on the look you are after.
