It honestly feels like this case lacks hard drive racks
With such a tremendous size I'm amazed it only holds 6 (?) drives.
Also, wheels.
Otherwise nobody but Arnold Schwarzenegger will be able to move it

I figured that slide-in cage held more.
But either way, and I know this sounds ridiculous, thats still a pretty low number.
The Lian-Li V2000 is probably a great deal smaller and holds 12 drives. I'm just saying, considering the leviathan nature of this case it seems rather quirky for it to only support 10 3.5" drives.

It all depends what you want from a case. I designed this case primarily for liquid cooling. If you want a case that holds many HDD's or multiple optical drives, then this wouldn't be the case for you. However, I could design HDD racks that hold more drives, more tightly packed. Like you say, with the amount of room available, it would probably be possible to hold about twenty.....

Well sure, and it does its job at what you intended it to very well.
I'm just pointing something out. Its not a concern for 99% of people, but I know a couple people that, if this case were on the market, wouldnt buy it because they collect blurays and have like eight kabillion hard drives.
Looking at it, why exactly is there a lower 5.25" rack and then an upper?
Why not replace the lower 5.25" with more HDD racks and leave the upper?
Most people dont use 5.25" reservoirs, and I cant think of any use for more than two 5.25" bays
