That sounds really cool.... but I hope it does not not sound like a truck or mortorcycle sitting your house.
I own several "fanless" designs and they work great.
I also hope you can upgrade the hard drive, if you ever need to. That is why I like buying the cases without the drives, so I'll know if I want to drop a 500 GB drive in it next year, I'll be able to do that.Windows 10 to Linux and Mac OSX: I'm PARSECs better than you. Eat my dust!!!

I've got 3 external drives now, 200GB, 250GB and 320GB. I'm pretty paranoid about backups so a lot of data which is stored is duplicated.

I've got 2 Externals, but one isn't mine, it just stays at my house.
I mainly use internals, don't know why, less cables running crazy.
That picture looks like a render.

That green hard drive looks like a grasshopper
My favorite external drive is from seagate but it's plain looking but with sturdy design.

I'll always go for a Western Digital drive and stick that into a case. But then again, if I had a desktop, it'll definitely be internal drives. SATA > USB
