Athena Power RM-1U1202B30 Black 1.2 mm Steel 1U Rackmount Server Chassis with 20" Sliding Rail 300W 1 External 5.25" Drive Bays - OEM

Pros: Inexpensive

Cons: Included 300W PSU Comes with two SATA power connectors on a single line. Unfortunately, the second (inline) connector is useless - it can't be connected to the drive if the drive is connected to the case. Great design when your PSU is incompatible with your case - evidently never bench tested.

Manufacturer Response:

We at Athena Power apologize for the inconvenience and we would like it if you can call one of our service representatives at (626) 810-5008. They will be happy to assist you with your issue with the SATA connector and may be able to provide you with a solution to your problem. Thank you.

Pros: Sturdy case, durable
4 fans
Rails
No sharp edges, excellent paint finish
Interior design and use of space is fantastic

Cons: Lack of variation in I/O plates, but these cases were not supposed to hold desktop motherboards anyway.

Other Thoughts: Great case, but my rails weren't long enough for the installation. Nonetheless, they were managed to somehow fit the rack, and it's working flawlessly inside. Installed an i5-2500 system with 2.5" SSD (in 3.5" bracket) + 3.5" HDD. Everything just fits!

Pros: Price, PSU, decent construction, rails included, sufficient number of fans. Room for two 5.25 drives and a bit more...

Cons: Fans are a bit loud like the other reviewer mentioned. Modification of the case is needed for any kind of hotswaping

Other Thoughts: Great case for the person on a budget using a reg ATX mobo.

Pros: Cheap - Power Supply, Rails, Chassis in one package for a decent price.
Not too deep - Not bent - not heavy, fans are cheap and loud but what do you expect at this price?

Cons: Not sure if the description states this correctly or otherwise. There are two 5.25" bays out the front and 1 smaller 4" bay in center. Essentially the two front facing bays are 5.5" wide but a raid backplane or chassis for drives is a bit too big. I will need to open the bays 1/8" on either side making the openings larger to accommodate Thermaltake RC1600101A drive chassis.

Other Thoughts: After a visit to the local hardware store and purchase of a dremel bit, was able to open the bays a bit on either side to allow insertion / removal of drive trays from drive chassis.

I would buy again.
