If you're planning on using this for home a/v stuff as I am, grab 2 cheap 3 pin fans and maybe a fan speed adjuster when you buy this. -If you're mounting this in an a/v cabinet, make sure there is at least 1.5 (maybe even 2) inches of clearance from the front of the rails to the inside of the door, as the handles stick out a bit further than the others I have in mine. The best thing is... Everything is screwed together, so you can easily detach the front, or the back and have either a nice plate for some ugly equipment, OR have an open rear box to house other equipment. I use this for a home brew double conversion UPS (I put the 12v PS relays on a pcb and the inverter in one of these 2Us with the back removed (as the inverter is a bit long). In fact, the look of these things and the quality/price have me searching for things I can mount in them =] Note: About the front panel... I prefer industrial, subdued / basic look, and that's what these deliver. The extrusions are all good, but of an industrial quality (very fine cut marks on tops of handles, for example), which to me is perfect for my application, but some goofballs who have never seen a rack case might have expectation of unreasonable polish. This is easily in-line with the best-finished rack cases I've seen. Review: Quality Enclosure - I am using this enclosure with an DQ45EK Intel Mini ITX board. There is plenty of room for this type of mother board. I found: PROS: There are mounting brackets for a total of four (4) 3.5" Hard drives. The Front panel can hold two (2) 80mm Fans. Hard Drives will sit right in the airflow. It has one (1) bay for an CD / DVD ROM drive or such 5 1/4" size devices. There are mounting provisions for a full sized ATX power supply. If your mother board reaches, one can install four (4) add in cards of low profile type. Nice appearance. CONS: Since the enclosure is 2U high, add in card will have to be the low profile type. It could have been designed to use a 90 degree dual or triple riser with appropriate cutout. 5 1/4" card panels are more common! Well it is 2U vertical slots (Low profile cards only)!!!!! Mine came with only one fan installed. With some motherboards, the ATX power connector may interfere with the Hard Drive installed in the lower position. GOT ME!!!! Price dropped significantly after I ordered, guess it was just not a good timing. All over I am very satisfied with the appearance and functionality of the enclosure.

Is this correct? I have seen no other bad reviews with this** A: Well it depends, the unit is a tad more than 19" wide (about 1mm more), but will fit MOST standard racks, (not those tight-fit rare cabinets) **Q: Do the standoffs in this chassis accommodate a mini-itx motherboard?** A: They will. **Q: How many 3.5" HDDs can fit in each cage?** A: 1x 3.5" HDDs can fit in each cage. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing *by F***N on January 10, 2013* This line of (istar) cases delivers the best you'll expect: -The front is very pretty, delivers on my highest expectation based on the photos. -The construction is solid and unremarkable, middle of the road for rack cases -The front handles are remarkably easy to grip and carry one-handed, even though they're not loops -The interior cabling is quality and reaches headers even if they're not at the closest corner of the matx board (probably would reach to where the processor socket is on most boards -Internal capacity leaves a bit to be desired, but this is a SHORT DEPTH 2u, which means 3.5" HDDs cannot be mounted vertically, or even 3 high, so I can't really think of a better inside layout -The front fans are quality, but are kind of loud and have 4 pin molex connectors, so no motherboard control.
