I've got to build (as proof of concept) a server with nine (_9_) UDMA IDE disks (eight of them connected to a 2ware RAID controller) and now the fact that U-IDE cables mustn't be longer than 45 cm is biting my ass. Does anybody know a casing fitting an ATX board with a 3ware 6800 controller and space for all those disks? I took a look at the Chenbro Net and Echo series but no matter what I'm going to do no more than five disks will be connected. 3ware of course is pretty un-helpful (basically telling me that they're happy that it is my problem and not theirs).
