I've been asking about a lot of cases about the air flow and whatnot and which would be best and I have finally found one I wanted a somewhat small case with good airflow but also look stylish that would house all my components that I wanted and also keep them cool. this case flew under the radar for me never even heard of it I know the company just never heard of the case.since I'm able to just gut the entire case it will have great airflow which is what I'm looking for but anyways this is the build I'm going with I am set no more second thoughts and I will post pictures and whatnot once it is completely built http://pcpartpicker.com/p/sXkvJx

put an HDD in there as the SSD will eventually die you want to reduce the SSD's writes and rears as much as possible if you want to use it for along time.

Thanks for the tip ill add that on :D

if you do go with skylake..atleast adjust your psu and ram..paying way to much for ram and psu is kinda crappy

and you don't want a bx ssd..the bx are crippled

you want a MX or samsung evo

Exactly the survivors. its the same as the silicone lottery for chips some will go that far and some won't do you base your purchase off of luck and will it be a good overclocker? No you don't do that. in the post you sent to quote exactly. "we suffered multiple failures on the road to 1PB" 

so its honestly up to him but its always good to have a backup. + its way cheaper to have like a 3~500 GB SSD with a 2 or 3 TB HDD

So what do you suggest i do storage wise? Like 1 500gb ssd and an hdd?

I just don't want any of the 3.5 inch drives in the front of the case due to the base restricting airflow do you think I would be able to adhesive strips on the drive and just place it at the bottom of the case while it sits in one of the brackets?

Yeah the failures were out of the 6 drives they started with. They didn't all make it to 1PB, but even those as they can quoted the ssds went far beyond what they were ever expected to do. And yes one may only half as much maybe even a quarter and that will still be years of service. Ssds are far from the OC silicone lottery - they have to be more consistent and overall the chips are going to be pretty darn good if you are buying one the premium ssds on the market. Such as an Intel or Samsung. Of course you can still get a bad sectors as time goes on but that is to be expected and usually you don't get that many that fail until the whole thing goes.

 

 

And I would never tell someone to buy a SSD over a 1tb hdd simply for storage. But you are wrong in thinking that the reason to do so is because ssds have a limited amount of writes.

1PB is about 300GB of writes every day for 3,650 days (10 years). In the Storage Review test of 6 different ssd, all of them wrote more than 600TB, or more than 150GB of data every day for 10 years. Write that much to most desktop hdd and they too will start to fail.

 

Backups are always a very good idea.

80+ ratings certify electrical efficiency. Not quality.

I've been asking about a lot of cases about the air flow and whatnot and which would be best and I have finally found one I wanted a somewhat small case with good airflow but also look stylish that would house all my components that I wanted and also keep them cool. this case flew under the radar for me never even heard of it I know the company just never heard of the case.since I'm able to just gut the entire case it will have great airflow which is what I'm looking for but anyways this is the build I'm going with I am set no more second thoughts and I will post pictures and whatnot once it is completely built http://pcpartpicker.com/p/sXkvJx

 

Nice build. I would suggest EVGA SuperNOVA P2 850W 80+ Platinum Certified instead of the RM-850. While it is a bit more expensive, it is a significantly better psu.
