It makes sense to take such a body only for many years to come. Fans of making a Christmas tree out of a computer are definitely not suitable. Although there are the same, but with a window. Some pros: Sturdy, bulky body. Disassemble, assemble, mount conveniently. A large margin of capabilities, variability of components: you can assemble with CBO, you can with a variety of HDDs, both 3.5 "and 2.5". Already the second case from Fractal Design, the first - Arc Midi R2 - has been replaced with a new one, because. for 6 years it is simply outdated, but, judging by the condition, it will last another 10 years. I hope the new one will be no worse Has cons: They were too clever with the inner wall, which must be transferred if your task is to accommodate not a pump, but a lot of 3.5" HDDs. The wall must be rearranged, completely unscrewed and transferred to the other side of the case. The principle itself is not obvious and not really described, you have to guess. And screwing one bolt down there is an attraction and a serious test of patience. Mounting baskets with disks seems to be reliable, but it looks annoying. But if you have a standard configuration with a pair of SSD / HDD and even a serious pump, there will be no problems. Not cheap of course.
