for the average user, a mid sized tower is perfect.
if you have more than 4 drives that take the 5 1/4" bays, or a whole bunch of hard drives, then you need something more.
a server case might be a bit too much for most people....might be a bit too big...
but it will definately give you some pretty good airflow.
and if you want a small case, you CAN make your own.
all you need is some woodworking skills..or a good friend who can do it for you.
and you can make it as big or as small as you need.
