Components
The primary components are described below.
Drives
The standard configuration includes two 5.25" drive bays, four 2.5" drive bays, and
six combination bays that can house either 3.5" or 2.5" drives.
•
Each 5.25" bay can be configured to accept a 3.5"drive, or one or two 2.5" drives.
•
The four 2.5" bays are housed in a removable cage.
•
Two additional removable cages can each accomodate three 2.5" or 3.5" drives.
Fans and Cooling
The chassis includes two 120mm PWM fans in the front and one 120mm PWM fan
in the rear. Other fan mounts and configurations are possible.
•
Two front fans can be upgraded to 140mm.
•
Three fans can be mounted on the chassis top, 120mm or 140mm.
•
Fans can be mounted on the chassis side, two 120mm or one 140mm.
Motherboard
The chassis accepts ATX and Micro ATX form factor motherboards.
Expansion Slots
Seven PCI-E slots for expansion cards are available on the chassis rear. They
can also be used for Graphic Processor Units (GPUs). The maximum GPU length
depends on whether the dedicated 2.5" drive cage is installed--420mm without the
cage, 320mm with the cage.
External I/O Connections
The front of the chassis supports two USB 3.0 ports, a headphone port and a
microphone port. The configuration of the rear I/O ports depends on the motherboard.
User Interface
The front control panel features a power on/off button with LED illumination, and
a reset button.
