Mini towers are wonderful for the office: they save space, they use less power, and they're usually quieter. Sometimes, you need a computer with more muscle than will fit. Whether it's a small server operation, video editing, or controlling industrial processes, ABS has designed a full-sized tower that can take the heat.
With a total of five 120mm fans and pre-drilled holes to allow you to upgrade to water cooling, your computer can be a monster and still stay healthy. Holding up to ten hot-swappable SATA drives, eight expansion slots, two 5.25" drive bays and three 3.5" drive bay, four USB 2.0 ports, an eSATA port, a Firewire port, and two HD audio ports, you're ready for almost anything. Multiple ATX format compatible, so you can install the motherboard you need, not the one that will fit.
Pros: 1. Nice and roomy. No sharp edges. Most, if not all, parts removable with thumb screws. Good amount of convenient nooks for cable management.
2. Quiet case and quiet fans. Sound dampening material on walls and seams.
3. Hot swap bays easy to use. Each has an individual power switches for each drive.
4. Surprisingly light for size.
5. After reading a previous review about the fan door seeming cheap, I was worried the door was made out of cheap plastic. No way. The door is made of high-grade aluminum like the rest of the case. It seems just as solid and well-designed as the rest of this high quality case.
Cons: 1. It would be nice if each hot swap bay had individually led connections for RAID drive activity and failure indicators.
2. Price...
Other Thoughts: Picked this up when NewEgg offered this case with the X25-M 160gb G2 for a sweet combined discount. Thanks! Very nice case. Expensive but so far it has exceeded my expectations. Dare I say, it even seems to be worth the price. Setup: Intel DX58so, i7 920@3.5, 6gig corsair, 80gb X25-M G1, 300gb raptor, Areca 1231ml, 8 2tb Hitachi 2K7000 RAID 6, corsair hx850

Awesome - Worth the Dough
Reviewed By: KearneyR1Z on 3/16/2010
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Anything you would ever need to put in this thing, it accommodates. You have room for two PSU's plus your mobo, without any overlap. Super easy to work inside. Great experience to work with and looks great.
Cons: None, she's a peach!
Other Thoughts: The cost could be a concern. If you are strapped for cash, there're other alternatives that may be more cost efficient. But if you have the money, and need room for everything, including the sink: this is the way to go.
One comment though, the Power LED light is a 3 pin connector, with the middle empty. Something to keep in mind when you're either looking to buy your motherboard, or when you're getting ready to assemble. You'll need to find a work around if yours is 2 pinned male on the mobo. My solution was just to pull the + wire out of the edge and put it in the middle. Just be careful.

Excellent Case
Reviewed By: James on 12/2/2009
Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This case is well built and thought out out. It is strong but light weight for its size. Has alot of headroom which is good for heat dissapation. The three 120 intake fans conveniently located in the front door make for easy access to the HDs (great potential in the front and top sections for custom water cooling). Of course, like most system builders I switched these out for my own fans. The side support bar is great considering I have a Nvidia 295 Co-op edition video card (very heavy card). The removable mobo tray makes after market heasinks easy to install and won't clip your wires like some slide tray versions I have had. Easy to hide cable for a clean look and optimal airflow. With the sound deadening panels on both side makes this case very quiet. I have 5 fans and can barely hear them when they are running full speed. Love the brushed aluminum finish.
Cons: Price (a bit high despite the quality) The rest are not cons just things you need to consider: * Only 3 5.25" Drive Bays - You will want to plan your fan controllers and DVD/CD players wisely * Hot Swappable HD back plates - I removed these in favor of airflow. Generally if I am going to switch out a HD I am more concerned about the ease of installing not plugging them in (also they are green - come on ABS it's a black case - why didn't you make these black too)
Pros: awesome case, but not sure if it fits my P800 sas card which is a whooping 12 3/4 inch long card.
Cons: price

Best Case I've Ever Owned
Reviewed By: mddubs on 7/15/2010
Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Top of the line design, construction and materials. Everything is high-quality metal. The side panels slide in and bolt down for maximum sound dampening, the best I've seen. Tool-less. Tons of room. Very quiet and cool.
10 hot-swappable, independently powered, SATA drives, and they work great.
This case was built to be cool, quiet, and sturdy; and they hit the nail on the head. This is my first experience with ABS and I couldn't be happier. They give you lots of spare screws/hardware/etc... they just do it right.
Cons: Somewhat expensive and it's big, but honestly it doesn't seem as big as I thought it would be.
I wish there was an LED for each hard disk... but I think I'll live.
Other Thoughts: Perfect case for my home office server. Cool and quiet in the back room. 6 hard drives in there already, and plenty of room to expand.

Had to mod a little
Reviewed By: Early on 5/31/2010
Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Plenty of room and fans.
Cons: I removed the hotswap to alleviate the cable routing and use Sata power cables only. I had an old Raptor that wouldn't fit and did not really need the hotswap feature. The case uses a thin aluminum for panels but this is to keep weight down.
Other Thoughts: I would buy the case again if needed. I loved my old Zalman GT 1000 but not enough airflow for new GPU's to keep cool.
