Great Case for Server

Reviewed By: chris on 9/27/2007

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Very big, easy to spread out in. Airflow is excellent. Drive cages have fan mounts on the front to attach cooling fans. No tools required. Makes an excellent server case. No really sharp edges (no blood).

Cons: No fans included. Make sure you stock up when ordering. Front panel is a little bit annoying to get off.
Watch any dual proccessor or SLI setups. Might interfere with lower drive cage. Need longer cables for anything mounted in top 5 1/4" drive bays (30"+).

Other Thoughts: Using it for a 2 TB raid unit. By adding some SATA PCI-E cards and i-star 5 1/4" drive cages, can double the amount of hard drives to 12. Great box for the price.

Pros: Lots of room, good air flow definately a good server chassis. Lots of nooks and cranys to hide cables in.

Cons: Heavy, Not long enough, an 8800gtx will require you to relocate one of the removable hard drive bays.

Not going to find a better case for the money

Pros: 14 total drive bays make this case worth it. It is very heavy and very tall. It's twice the size of my old case that had 9 drive bays. The most genius thing about this case is how it uses the fans. The 3.5in hard drive caddys have clips for the fans such that the are positioned between the hard drive caddy and the front of the case (no screws). Really a great idea because it gives easy access to fans because you do not need to take the entire case apart. Plenty of space on the inside if you are working with a lot of sata drives.

Cons: Does not come with any fans. Hard drive caddys took a little shoving after hard drives were installed, but did work. Motherboard placement could have been a little higher. Make sure you have cables long enough if you are going to use the top 5.25 drive bays.

Other Thoughts: As mentioned before, it's hard to find a case with this many drive bays and this build quality for this price.
