Fractal Design Define R5 Computer Case (White, solid panel)

Story Time: I upgraded to a Fractal Define 7 XL in January 2026 since it can hold 20 hard drives. My trusty super silent Fractal Define R5 I bought in 2018 from Amazon only holds 8 hard drives comfortably. Perfect for a NAS setup with 2 (two) 5.25" Optical bays like a blu-ray or DVD drive. This is the last Fractal Define R case with optical bays. The R7 and R6 don't have optical bays. Used this case to game, mine crypto, digital media library storage (movies and music), burning DVDs/Blu-rays, and for work. Why I love this case: Solid rigid construction Holds 8 HDDs with rubber dampeners Holds really long graphics cards Large case is easy to work inside with No sharp metal edges that could cut you Roomy behind motherboard so you can cram all your cables without worrying they will bend Super silent with sound dampening panels Windowless version dampens more sound and no glass shattering accidents will happen Supports 2 USB 3.0 and 2 USB 2.0 ports in the front of the case White paint color hides dust really well Really easy to clean with a front dust filter (pops off) and a bottom dust filter (slides out) Minimalist Scandinavian Design Aesthetic (no gaudy RGB) Condition: Almost pristine condition, no chipped paint at all All accessories and boxes included, I counted all the screws and grommets! Includes White Define R5 Case (2 x Fractal R3 140mm case fans included) Accessories and accessory box Cardboard Case Box + Styrofoam + Case Bag Bonus: Includes a 3rd pre-installed Fractal Design R3 140mm fan + Original Fan Box (worth $20 I bought in 2024 September) used 4 long fan screws included with the case to install the fan onto the front of the case Official Product Page: https://www.fractal-design.com/products/cases/define/define-r5/ Define R5 Reviews https://www.techpowerup.com/review/fractal-design-define-r5/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMScVX3eCPs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d_ZLKzqcUtM https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SRZIdbdcIiU
