Question Plain Vanilla Full Tower Case???

[Thermaler]

Does anybody still make them?
I know some like the glass and glitz, it is pretty cool.
Some are trying to get them as small as they can, one day you will have one implanted, ouch!!!

Me? Well I have been building boxes since the IBM AT 12 MHz became obsolete . . . Those days are gone but the drive space I have from this decade wasting away really needs a home, a plain vanilla full tower case that can hold the 19 TB in five Seagate SATA's I have imitating paper weights is the goal.
It will be much easier to search a few HD's for model sailplane info than the I don't know how many or what is on them DVD's to find it.
Thanks Guys!

If i understand correctly, you're looking full-tower ATX case where you can put your 5x HDDs and which doesn't have the bling of current trending PC cases?

If so, how about Corsair 750D and it's Airflow Edition,

diff between 750D and 750D AF edition:

My Haswell build, full specs with pics in my sig, is sitting in 750D AF case. 750D/750D AF comes with 2x HDD cages, with 3x 3.5" bays per cage, meaning that you can install 6x 3.5" HDDs into it problem free. Also, when you buy additional HDD cages,

you can install up to 12x 3.5" HDDs into the case since case supports 4x HDD cages. Also, it has 4x dedicated 2.5" SSD mounting brackets, separate from HDD cages. And true to the roots, it also has 3x 5.25" external bays. I still don't understand why PC case manufacturers doesn't want to include external 5.25" bay(s) to their cases anymore. To me, external 5.25" bay is crucial since it has so many uses (as seen from the pics of all 3x of my PCs).

For a bit modern looking full-tower ATX case, with same features, you can look towards Corsair 760T V2 (comes in as black or white),

My Skylake build sits in a 760T V2 Black case and compared to the 750D AF, it has it's side panels on hinges, making access of the system much more convenient.

Oh, my 2nd choice when i was looking for a full-tower ATX case was Phanteks Enthoo Pro,

Since choosing a PC case is a personal choice, go with the one that you like the most.

I recently bought this Full Tower Case for the same reason, I needed a case that would hold a lot of HDDs, a DVD Burner, a few SSDs and good airflow:
