Cons:Poor dust filtering.No Front Power Off Button (Reset only)
Pros:Easy AccessSturdy ConstructionGood Ventilation FlowLarge Quite Fans (large amount of air move creates acceptable noise)Price |
I've brought a few of these cases now for our production enviroment. They have proved to be very acceptable for the price paid. We paid 3 times the price for cases like this with greater weeknesses. Biggest issue is the lack of dust filtering, these cases come with two wire screens that will not stop fine dust. Compared to a home tower case this is probably a moot point.There is no power-off switch in the front (only rocker reset) so you have to go to the back of the unit to the on/off switch on the PSU (PSU not supplied). The orientation of the 2 supplied 3.5in drive bays is such that full air is allowed to pass over each drive (our other cases did not allow this, so cooling HD's became an issue). There is plenty of ventilation access along this case making for good air movement from front to back.In all a good case and will be purchasing more for our Generic Rack systems.
