i'm new to building my own PC and was looking at eskro's builds, but figure i'd like one with an SSD for win7 & xbmc, and also a 3tb HDD for my media.

would this fit in, for example, the antec microfusion case? or do i have to go bigger?

(also, if i'm planning to put win7, xbmc and all my aeon fanart for a few thousand movies and CDs, what size SSD would you recommend?)

edit - dont worry, found the answer to my question in this thread

I just built my HTPC and used the Silverstone ML03B case. It looks to be about the same size as the Antec case you are talking about. (FYI - I would have went with the Antec case but I wanted a black front.) The Antec is 4.5" x 15.1" x 16.1" (H x W x D) and my Silverstone is 4.1" x 17.3" x 13.4". I was able to fit a mATX board, full sixed ATX PSU, DVD drive, two 3.5" HDDs, a pcie tuner card, and 2 80mm fans in there. It was tight but it all fits. I just removed the PSU and replaced it with a 150w picoPSU. Now there is plenty of room in there.
