Sorry for the late reply, but I wanted to chime in on this. I have
a P180 and I love it. Two removable dust filters on the front side,
good air flow across the drive storage bays, power supply at the
bottom of the case, top-back and back-top fans, rubber drive-screw
mounts for reducing drive vibration, removable drive cage, good
noise-reducing side panels -- all in all, very quiet and cool.

My only beef is that the front case door doesn't expose the power
button -- so I have to open the front to go into standby. The front
door folds all the way back flush against the left side of the case,
which is handy.
