So, in looking around I see some reasonable reviews and no obvious problems with this 4U chassis. Then I read this from @Chris Moore...
So, here I am , Chris, asking that question :) You don't indicate why it is "a bad investment". Is this contextual to that specific post / scenario or is there some general problem with the case?
I have also looked at Rosewill but have read some reasonably strong opinions (not always good) about build quality, but still considering this,
By the way, I am back and forth between a rack mounted chassis and a regular PC case (looking at the Fractal Design Node 804). If I was only building a FreeNAS box I'd probably just go with the latter, but quite soon I plan to have another 24x7 box running Blue Iris. Therefore, I kind of like the idea of going with rack mounted solutions and putting them together in a rack.
