d6bmg Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 At $180, ita a very good case IMO. The best part which I like is the fact that all drive bays are easy swap bays which can also be called as hot swap bays. A total of 10 easy/hot swap bays! This fact makes it a very good NAS box too. Just my thoughts here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just my thoughts here. hey d6, I liked it with an *. I really liked the clamshell easy swap cages it just has the feel of attempting to have 'all the features, but none of them were very polished. If you live near a micro center and get a chance to get hands on with one of these cases, I would be interested what you think after you get to kick the tires.

Stonerboy779 Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Not a fan..... And I like louvers It's the design that has me put off it has some great features bur as a complete package it wasn't executed properly and at $180 there are plenty more options I would choose over this. Although I see modders taking advantage of this because those louvers are screaming for a temperature controlled servo. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish they had chosen about half the features and really polished them. The servo idea is cool. could be as simple as a b-metal device. @ Boinker, Thanks again man. I appreciate the feedback.

If you remember the thermaltake level 10 maximum security mod posted on her a couple months back by SXRguyinMA. Well in the past he has done a mod where he made up louver cooling for an NZXT tempest and had it controlled by temps. Also had the door on another servo I believe, he always incorporates great motorized and electronic things in his build and seeing this case made me think of it. I second Boinkers sentiments another great review but this time the subject was as you say not "really polished". Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Provided what your thinking is what I am thinking ...apparently i am I think it will merely be the removal of the '3 point plate' behind the frame.
