I have an SR104. The case is wider than a typical midtower at almost 9 inches. If you have a supply with a bottom fan on it there is 5/8" clearance between that fan and the side of the case for airflow (that's the default mounting) however you can flip the supply over and the bottom fan will be facing the drive cage. There is about 3/8" spacing between the supply and the drive cage and the cage has about 40 1/2" holes on each side for ventilation. You can easily cut more slots in it if you want it to be even more open. There is no problem with ventilation with bottom fan type PS. Here is a URL with details and pictures. click on the pics and links for more details.

How much room is there between the "underside" of the PS (now pointed at the hard drives) and the drive cage? I'm asking because I'm using Seasonic "Tornado" PSs - 120mm fan on the PS "underside" (really nice PSs, quiet, high efficiency, high apparent-to-actual power ratio). Seasonic does make a similar PS with the fan in the "usual" place, which is only slightly louder - but it is louder...
