CFI Diablo LT CFI-B1010 Black SECC / Mesh & Plastic Front Bezel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: Locked HDD & SSD Cage.
Rubber grommets.
Top mounted 120mm fans and support for 140mms.
Swappable HDD and SSD docks.
Small yet spacious enough to fit the meanest GPUs.

Cons: None so far.

Other Thoughts: What motivated me to write this review is the locked hard drive cage. I am a system builder and engineer. A lot of times, I face the issue of knocked out hard drives when I ship the systems to customers. Even the more expensive cases like NZXT Tempest Elite and XION 980 cases fail to take care of this issue. The hard drive mounts are FRAGILE in most cases. But in this case, they are securely placed in lockable cage and you have absolutely no fear of them getting knocked out during shipping. Even after putting fragile signs on the packages, I ran into these issues with most cases. Thanks to this case, I am confident shipping my machine.

Pros: Two hot swap bays and SATA one dock.

Cons: Sides a little tight but manageable. Might not like if you get in a lot.

Other Thoughts: Mine came missing the 3.5" plastic drive bay rail. CFI sent me a new one after emailing about the missing part.

Contacted Newegg first but was told to deal directly with CFI. First bad experience with Newegg.

Pros: This is my first upgraded case and originally I wanted the antec 900 but that thing was like 90 bucks. Im extremely happy with this CFI Diablo.. After 2 rebates case was 50 bucks plus tax Case feels strong little bigger then expected but not a problem. Has plenty of slots for routing wires. Fans are quiet. I like how every thing is easily excusable. Comes with all hardware needed. I would recommend this case

Cons: Not really a con but dont over tighten the bay screws you shouldn't be doing it in the first place Just a heads up its a computer not a car

Other Thoughts: Some reviews said that the side panels are a little tough to remove they can be just a bit.. But I work on cars so a little elbow grease is something I'm use too.. But I don't see it as a problem..

Pros: Space and Airflow are great in this case. Using a full ATX board and Liquid cooling system I still have lots of room for airflow. Cable management made easy with this case as well, has the opening for a 8-pin power connector for CPU.

Cons: None.

Other Thoughts: Buy it!

Pros: Solid case. Love the build in 2 removable 3.5 drives near the bottom of the case and the 2.5/3.5 slot on top (easy for me to backup bare drive or duplicate hard drive +++). Very quiet even though its has 4 fan.

Cons: no build in speaker, led light is great but too bright for me.

Other Thoughts: Little heavy than expected. Love Newegg for shipping this case so fast. Ordered on the 4th got it on the 5th Wow!

Pros: Nice cable management, case looks amazing, contains hdd housings and screws were even all bagged up in little baggies in a box.

Cons: little heavier, but worth it for the quality

Other Thoughts: For some of the more common motherboards, the SATA ports are beginning to show up on the bottom right of the mobo's, which just so has it being right alongside the hard drive housing. With this case however, there is a little dip where the SATA ports are, which made for excellent placement.

The fans are extremely quiet for the quantity that are on this case. I can barely even hear that it is running when it powers up.

Top housing comes off for fan replacement, nice touch instead of the needing to dig through the guts of the PC for replacing fans.

Pros: A lot of space, great ventilation, ready for water cooling kits as the Crosair H50. great USB 3.0 ports -compatible with my gigabyte mobo- looks and feels strong, external SATA port, very silent fans, great price, good cable management. 2 1/2, 3 1/2, 5 1/4 drive bays.

Cons: The doors are a little bit hard to take out. I was able to pass most cables excepting the motherboard's power one. Hard drives are a little bit hard to install.

Other Thoughts: For the price, this was a very good deal without rebates!!

Pros: Comes with fans in every fan slot, blue LED on front. Easy to install everything, inside storage for External HD's. Very good quality case for price. SSD storage w/o adapters.

Cons: Only 4 fans, mesh areas feel rough, not very soft to touch. And blue and red color scheme? Shoulda been all blue/black. No blue LED for top fans. Descriptions don't match product ("side fans" are on top of case, and a few other points)

Other Thoughts: Correct the description flaws? Ordered 3 blue LED fans anyway, works great with my AMD build. no water cooling yet, but a great case all-around.
