This 26-pound behemoth will certainly satisfy all your storage needs, and fortunately it has wheels.

So is this a huge desktop or a server case, cause how many gaming rigs have 20 hard drives unless your the type of person that always has to keep up with Joneses.

 

[itsnotmeitsyou]

dual PSUs are more frequent in server applications, and this case appears to have room for those. IM guessing SOHO server apps, or someone with a Sh-- ton of liquid cooling hardware, and a penchant for data redundancy. and deep pockets.

20 * 4 = 80 Terabytes. Similar Lian-Li cases cost around $450

If somebody were to make a gaming PC with that case and try to utilize all of the features they would have one hell of a PC. I can't even think of a computer build that would require dual PSUs. You would need dual or quad xeons, 100+ gbs of ram, 20Hdds in raid, dual gtx 690s, sound card, media card, etc

Lian-Li makes alumiinum look beautiful ...$300 isn't bad for such a piece.

Sweet, time to go buy one up along with a decent pus and some raid controllers. I have enough ide drives piled up enough to be worth between 2-3tb with drives as small as 1gb. Make one hell of a win98 monster

If you want that sort of capability, check CaseLabs. Much Better IMO.

1. Buy desk
2. Throw PC brackets inside of it
3. Have what you see here, I love the wheels.

I see some heavy water cooling potential in this rig, are those 120mm fan mounts I see there? Especially with the separate compartment everything could be so nice and neat, and since it has a ton of drive bays you can stick 3.5 drive bay reservoirs and other stuff. Don't know about you guys but I see some potential here.

 

[UltimateDeep]

For its size, you sure have tonnes of room available to add tonnes of water cooling and Bling to the case. And also Notice, there are 11 PCI-E Slots rather than 10.

The Obsidian 800 has some competition.

Get some 3.5 to 2.5 inch brackets and put 40 SSDs in that case. XD

 

[memadmax]

Went it comes to cases, bigger is better =P

Together anything (in a very limited sense) is possible.

Someone buy forty Samsung 830 256 GB SSDs in RAID 0 with $1200 dedicated RAID card just to boot up Windows 7 under a sec.

The one case that can hold all the episodes of The Young and the Restless AND The Bold and the Beautiful!

The Dual PSU capability will be most useful for redundancy, not for doubling up power output.

Years ago, Samsung did a promo in which they did just that. Old SSD tech, much slower than what we have now - and tremendously more expensive too. Imagine... larger capacity at a significantly lower price - with extremely high performance compared to previously. I would love to see this.

Maybe (couldn't find anything with a 5s google search), but it's probably obsolete by now since the damn things are ongoing.

Holy crap.

Damn! that's alot of porn!

Glad to see Lian Li expanding on their cube case designs; I was hoping for one that would support E-ATX / SSI EEB form factor as an upgrade for my video editing workstation and this looks ideal. This should compliment my PC-343B gaming system nicely.

Exactly my thought. Btw, taht thing is a monstrosity. My kandalf LCS from thermaltake is huge, but that is way bigger.

I actually miss the Mozart TX from thermaltake. That was huge, and usefull.

Hey, I had a Mozart TX back in 2007. That thing was too sexy for its underwear.
