Until recently, computer cases haven't been much of a worry to most people. Most every case has the same basic features, but the good ones have extra features that really make them stand out. As you can see, the Antec case has many notable features that make it stand out from your average tower case. First of all, it comes with Antec's 300W SmartPower Power Supply. This should provide more than enough power for your system, even with multiple fans, hard drives, etc. This specific case is designed to house a file server, so it has space for 5 or more hard drives. Not only that, but it has screwless mounting brackets for up to 4 fans. It even comes with 2 fans as standard. The easy open swing out side panel, and front door are both lockable for added security. The case is constructed with 1mm cold rolled steel for strength and durability. All the sharp edges have been smoothed down to avoid hurting yourself. The features of the case look good, but do they make a difference in the real world? Let's see how installation went.
