I'm a big fan of the R5 case. I went with it for my recent build and could not be happier with it. Its quiet and cool. It's in a regular office environment and I don't ever see drive temps in excess of about 30 degrees. It comes with two 140 mm fans and I bought another one to match. Two fans in the front for intake and one in the back for exhaust. I removed the front door panel from the case for improved air flow. I considered the 804, but it looks to me like changing out a failed drive in that case would be a PITA.
Yeah, I like the idea of letting two fans in the front push air between/"through" all 8 drives placed just in front of the fans. That seems nice for the drives.
Is it i big difference regarding noise if you remove the front panel or not?
