Features

As I mentioned earlier, this is a fairly low price case that is packed with features. The first and possibly most noticeable feature is the removable motherboard tray. The tray is held in place by four thumbscrews and slides in and out on smooth chrome rails. The expansion card slots on the motherboard tray are held in place by thumbscrews which make the addition or removal of add-on cards a little easier.

The hard drive cage is also removable. The cage is held in place by three thumbscrews. The cage slides in and out of place without any fancy chrome rails. The cage has room for up to five hard drives. The drives mount vertically and sit in front of two 80mm intake fans. The PC speaker is located out of sight below the removable hard drive cage.

Above the hard drive cage is another 3.5" drive cage which is not removable and can hold up to four drives mounted horizontally; three external, one internal. The 3.5" drive faceplates clip into place and do not require any screws.

Above the 3.5" cages is the 5.25" device cage which houses up to four 5.25" drives. Similar to the 3.5" faceplates, the 5.25" drive faceplates clip into place and do not require any screws. All of the drive cages require screws for mounting. There are no fancy slides or clips to easily secure drives in the bay.

108 bucks is still more than I would like to pay for a case but its almost a steal considering everything it has. I really like the removable tray and the built in blow hole. I've never actually had a case with a removable tray cuz they are always out of my budget, but I can imagine how much easier it would be to work on the mobo outside of the case. As for the blow hole, I've always wondered why not tooo many cases come with blow holes built in, its so simple and effective.

Well, If anyone sends me a hundered bucks thats the first thing I would buy, but untill I pay off my college loans the case will have to wait.
