Regarding the rosewill cases, I am not sure what you mean by plenty of room on the intake. I placed them close together just for the photo. Installing the enterprise hard drive was easy. There was about one half inch of free space between the connectors inside the case. The outside has a very nice on off switch too. Fan is quiet. And there is an easy to see blue light telling you the drive is on. One case has a 14TB drive. The other a 12 TB drive. There is no real limit on TB capacity as long as the drive is a 3.5 inch drive. If you plan to fill up the power strip you may need liberator plugs as those transformers can take up more than one plug slot. I got the power strip at an on line store, Cyberguys. They sell liberator plugs too.

Like I thought, arranged for the photo. Normally, your fans have plenty of "free space" for air intake. As you say, easily located on/off switch though I never use the fan on/off switch, just make sure it's on (being so small, not easily bumped). Those blue lights are BRIGHT, but don't bother me. Yes, 10 screws to install: 4 for case bottom, 2 for side inserts, and 4 to secure HDD inside. I've bought mine from Newegg. And I understand about the liberator plugs.
