iStarUSA D-300-MUSIC 3U Media Server Rackmounted Case

Comment:
I'm not impressed at all with this case. Power supply is mounted in the front with a very flimsy bracket that was bent from the wieght of the supply. AC power has to be run the whole way through the case to get to the connector on the front of P/S. NOT a good idea. The P/S bracket looks like it is meant to also hold a 3.5'' hard drive, right above the P/S fan. Maybe a good idea but may block P/S air intake. Bracket has too much flex. The bracket for holding 4 Hard drives has the screws coming from the bottom so the case hase to be turned over to get it out and yes there is no other way to get the drives screws installed. Then you have to figure out how to route the 120vac cable. The whole case seems like it might have some flex. Just not a lot of good design on the inside. The front panel does look good and have a good finish. componets do line up and fit fairly well. I'd rather pay twice this cost and have a much better case and will in the future.
