Silverstone Case SST-GD98LED
Opening the Case
All of the standard exterior devices of the case are located behind two different doors. The top door, which holds the power button, also hides 2 5-¼-drive bays. These will hide even the ugliest of CD-ROM devices, although if you want to install any rheostats, you may have to think twice about it. The second door below the main conceals the single 3 ½ bay as well as connectors for the MIC, headphones and dual USB. The reset switch is also located here to the right. Since many people don't use a floppy, it isn't too inconvenient to have it placed all the way at the bottom of the case. Both of these doors are retained with a small clip that releases when depressed.   To gain entry into this case requires only a single thumbscrew located on the rear towards the top. Removing this screw frees the top of the case that is released by sliding it back. With the top removed, I have access to the small power supply as well as the HD cage that can hold 2 drives. To remove the side panel, all that is required is to simply lift up on it. No flashy levers or release mechanisms here. This is just a simple, straightforward design that does its job well.
