Convenient Side I/O PanelThe Thermaltake Matrix VD2000BNS features a convenient side I/O panel for easy access to two USB 2.0, one IEEE 1394 and two audio ports.
Pros: Good airflow. While only one 120mm rear fan is installed there are mounting points for 80/92/120mm fan in front and 92mm fan on the side panel.
Cons: Supplied screw selection was short 2 standoffs for installing a full size atx motherboard. Steel is thin enough to deform easily (it is not flimsy however.) Installed drives can shift with small amounts of pressure so I would not use this case if it must be transported often.
Overall Review: Front panel is steel mesh with foam backing over a plastic frame. The filtration benefit is offset by the large vent holes in the side panel which are not filtered. It looks better than the pictures. Paint is textured finish. 80/92mm front fan will cover the top 3 3-1/2 harddrive bays, 120mm fan will cover all 4. I would recommend a low profile fan, very little room between the fan and the front edge of the drives. There is very little acoustic muffling, you will hear all your components.
