HL15 -- Cant Decide

@technotim has some RGB in his 45Drives unit:

These ones have some RGB:

I don’t have RGB, but if I did I’d try to replicate the old IBM tape drive or fire effects:

I like the original white case, but it depends on your decor. The blank faceplates seem too bland to me.

Do you have any Ubiquiti equipment? The Ubiquiti folks are very insistent that everything match their silver finish, it’s kinda funny:

You’d also want to consider fan color if you don’t go RGB. For example the Noctua upgrade provided by 45HL (brown blades) vs black (Chromax or the basic Coolerguys fans), for example. For some, black fans in a white case triggers OCD issues.

Since mine is in a closet, though, the prettiest one is the cheapest.
