Never mind about the Palo Alto case, I just found out only OEMs get the case with 4 internal 3.5" bays. The one I almost bought off ajump.com has only 2 internal 3.5" bays.
So that means I'm stickin' with the Antec SX1030. It's just so dang heavy, I was trying to find something a bit...
The case I'm actually considering over this one is the Palo Alto Products PA-810 Tower Server/Workstation Enclosure. It's a very similar case. Here are the differences to the SX1030. The PA-810 is:
* ~8.4 lbs lighter
* 1.7" shorter
* one less external 5.25 bay
* $60 more expensive
* harder...
Yeah, the price may be $77.48 but provantage.com is gonna rape you on shipping. I plugged in California and they gave me a shipping cost of $37.65. Onvia.com has free shipping.

After reading this thread I just went down to Fry's and bought one (a white one) for $98. Onvia is a better deal but I didn't feel like waiting, I didn't really want black, and this way I can return it if I don't like it. Looks like a pretty nice case, and I need room for lots of hard drives.
