Manufacturer Limited Warranty period (parts): 1 year
Manufacturer Limited Warranty period (labor): 1 year
Cooler Master combined classic and modern design in the RC-330-KKN1-GP, to create a case that will last. Housing four 5.25" and two 3.5" external drive bays it gives you more room than most people would ever use. It gives easy access to the two USB 2.0 ports and two audio ports by placing them front and center. They finished this with a classic two toned black and silver appearance to create a classic look for years to come.
That's just the exterior, though. The interior is where it really shines. The five 3.5" internal hard drives will give you plenty of storage space. The front vents feature an ingenious vent system that feature an easy to clean filter. The rear 120mm fan will have no trouble pulling the cool air in, and the side air duct will enjoy expelling the hot air from your CPU.
Creating the perfect system will be quick and painless proposition with this case as well. Each and every drive bay, both internal and external, features tool free installation, as does the side panel and the seven expansion slots. Make it easy on yourself. Get a case that will support your frequent "tweaks" and changes without skinning your knuckles or cramping your hands. This case will leave your hands healthy for manipulating that keyboard!
Pros: Good price, nice construction. Screw-less mounting for your drives and expansion cards. Both of which work very well and are quite clever. The entire front of the case is essentially a filter (metal mesh with thin foam behind it).
Cons: It is advertised as having two external 3.5 bays, but one of them is actually taken up by the front USB/audio. If you need two external 3.5 bays, you will lose those features. Front USB is also a bit tight, to the point it feels like I might bust the ports right through the front of the case. While it is nice that the front of the case has the filter material, the only way to clean it is to take the whole front of the case off, and pull out all the individual pieces of foam.
Other Thoughts: I was really worried about getting this case without there being a prior review, but I can say now that I am happy I went with it. The case is very well made, and at a fair price. It also affords good ventilation, with the advantage of having the entire front panel acts as a filter for the front fan (which is not included, but the case has ample mounting room for one). I have only very minor problems with this case, and would absolutely buy another.

Good Small Server Case
Reviewed By: Section-9 on 3/6/2007
Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
Pros: I have a few of these cases and in my opinion is one of the best designed small cases around for the price. Great airflow and cooling when used with a second 120mm fan. I should know because I am running 4 SCSI 10k drives with a dual processor motherboard in this case. Like other Cooler Master cases it is well designed and has a professional look that would make it feel at home in a server room or an office.
Cons: The only con about this case that I have is the quick fasteners for the drives. I think that they would work ok if you are using a slower drive than 10K RPM but my drives were vibrating more than my liking. So I removed all of the fasteners and used screws to fasten my drives into the case which solved this minor issue.
Other Thoughts: This case is well worth the money, it is designed well and you get what you pay for and then some. Do yourself a favor and pick up another 120mm fan for the front of the case while you’re purchasing it and it will keep your entire case cool.

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: less than 1 day

Pros: Inexpensive. Front panel is put together surprisingly nicely, and has a good, solid feel. Great airflow. Rear fan comes with an adapter, in case your board doesn't have a 3-pin system fan connection. Stamped covers for the PCI slots come out very easily. Power LED is comfortably bright, as opposed to being able to light up an entire room. Wiring and switches for power and reset buttons are mounted to the case, so nothing's attached to the back of the front panel when you want to pull it off and do something like clean the foam inserts attached to the back of the mesh pieces. Front audio has connectors for both HD audio and AC97.
Cons: As is to be expected in this price range, the side panels are a little flimsy and can be a bit of a pain to get lined up and back on. The finish on them looks and feels cheap, and shows things like fingerprints easily. The tool-less clips didn't hold my hard drives very securely, and one of them broke on me with little to no effort while I was locking it back into place. The wiring and switches for the power and reset buttons are in a little box mounted to the case itself, in front of the fan opening - it would have been nice if it was mounted to the back of the front panel, and/or was less of an obstruction.
Other Thoughts: As long as the minor cons aren't something you really have a problem with, it's a great value for the price.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I can't believe this case only cost $40. TONS of space. ALL TOOLESS DRIVE BAYS! 120mm exhaust fan. I put an 80mm in the front for intake. I feel like I could build a gaming rig in this case and it'd be okay.
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: Most cases that cost this little are completely no frills. They usually have sharp edges and definitely don't have this much room. I am amazed with the finish of this thing. This is now my go to case for budget builds.

Absolutely Under-rated
Reviewed By: Hydrofirex on 1/12/2010
Tech Level: high - Ownership: more than 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great look: from busineses to gamers this case has amazing looks. There's not much more you can ask for - she's a sexy beast. The case is easy to work in, and has plenty of expansion space. The quality of the construction is solid and I've never had an issue with any build I've done in this case. It's also worth noting it has the mesh front with filters for easy cleaning and plenty of air circulation.
THE PRICE. This case is a steal.
Cons: It doesn't have all of th bells and whistles you might get if you spent a mint on your case, but it also doesn't cost a mint.
Other Thoughts: I love this case and have included it in mutliple builds. The look, the features, the price point: I think, assuming it's not too big for you, that it's the best case offered by Coolermaster in this price range and highly under-rated. (Yes the Centurion Cases are nice too - but clunky in comparison!)
