Man, I saw 800 for the case and thought it was not bad, honestly, with the backplane. This is not from China. It's from Canada and made in country. I'm not sure what people here expected. 400 dollars? 200 dollars? 800 for the Case, and the backplane is reasonable due to where it has been manufactured. Sure, you can get another case for 200 or 300 dollars or DIY your own, then do that. China is cheap. If I hadn't built another NAS already for a truenas server, I would pull the trigger on this.
