Does anyone know where I can find a case that would fit and support atleast 6 harddrives, have 4 5.25bays, then be able to support my A7N8X-Deluxe board with an AMD-AthlonXP-1800+ and 1gig DDR2100 ram, GeForce 2MX400 or ATi Radeon 9200SE(not decided yet)

Where in the world are you Patrick?
I have just bought such a case from PC World in the UK. Besides 4 5.5" bays it also has spave for four internal drives. Has hinged side panels that make access for upgrading a thirty second job.

Try this one
Can fit 1 floppy, 5 x 3.25 hard drives, and 4 5.25 drives. If you dont use all 4 5.25 drives, you can use a mounting bracket to stick the 6th hard drive in the 5.25 bay.
Or you could always get this

Am in the States, I was unclear in what I said last time, wrote it in a hurry.I need something really that has 12 internal 3.5 bays. I need a space for harddrive coolers that mount on the bottom(better luck those vs. the 5.25 mounts). I then really only need 3 5.25 bays, 1 CD-Rom, space, and then a Burner. I would preforably like to have them all mounted where it does not get in the way of the board, especially wires and memory. Once I have all that setup I am going to run all the simular type wires in their own PVC pipe - to organize it(ie: power in on tube, IDE in a 2nd, SATA in a 3rd, etc) I'll also need to be able to mount 2 fans across the front, Horizontal 2; not vertical(have air being blown across the entire case, and not just from one source to be dispurted by acts of god) then one exhaust(other then the power-supply)...
Going to have 6 harddrives, and atleast 4 fans.... going to be a noisy sob isn't she?

These are as close as your going to come without buying a whole rackmount chassis and a few racks to go in it.
Get these to change those extra 5.25 drives into hotswap SATA drives
Or, get this one and buy scsi drives instead.
Server Chassis 2 w/ SCSI Hotswap

Very Nice, And Thank you very much, you hit
the nail dead center on the head and drove
it in with one hit! Looks good, might have
to go with the SCSI one and see if I can
the SATA drives in there anyway. And if I
can't, thats why they make tools right?
