Interesting in this regard is the yy-0221: http://www.directron.com/yy0221bk.html with 10 3.5" bays (well-cooled, too - fans mounted in front of 8 of them) and 6 5.25" bays. This doesn't leave much room for a power supply, unfortunately - the Supermicro bays are almost 10" deep, and the case is only 18" deep. I'll measure when I get home, but suffice it to say that the Enermax EG651P-VE I have in mine (at 140mm deep, if the manufacturer specs are correct) is a little on the tight side.
I've broken out the measuring tape as promised, and it isn't as desperately tight as I remembered. The case is 16 inches deep, not counting the plastic front cover, the Supermicro cages take up almost exactly 9 inches of that to the back of the fan. The Enermax power supply is actually 145mm deep by my measurements, not 140 as claimed, and this leaves about an inch and a quarter between the fan and the power supply. With some creative fan replacement or a small power supply, it's not too bad.
