I needed a PC case for my home server, which runs an ITX motherboard, 2 HDD drives, and a low-power CPU. The CPU, an Intel Xeon E3-1220L v2, has a 17W TDP, so it doesn't generate much heat. After searching for a case that met my needs, I couldn't find the perfect fit. So, I decided to modify an existing case by stacking one part on top of the other, effectively doubling the internal space and making room for all the components. I know the modification is a bit rough, but I like how it turned out. This custom solution works perfectly for my home server setup.

After searching for a case that met my specific requirements, I couldn't find the perfect fit. So, I decided to take an existing case and modify it. I made adjustments to double the internal space, allowing for the components I needed to fit comfortably. This custom modification provided the perfect solution for my home server setup.
