Hello there! After only 21 years one of my trustworthy German PAPST 92mm fans died inside an old Chieftech Mesh Big Tower Case and I nearly lost all my data since one of the HDDs got too hot and died.
Never again I say! Therefore I am looking for a case with the following features:
- ATX Board Support
- At least 8x 3.5" HDD slots, preferably more
- "redundant" cooling for the Hard Disks
- meaning fans next to the hard disks from both sides.
- If lets say the intake fan fails, a second fan from the other side of the hard disk will still be running, providing enough cooling until the primary intake fan has been replaced
I've started to sketch this up in tinkercad but find myself too lazy to actually complete a whole case with a 3D printer.
Here's what I mean:

If the fan on the front dies another one on the back is still around to keep things cool.
Do you guys have any suggestions? :) Thanks!
