Fantastic 2u case
This is a great case. Well built and room for everything you need. Even the low profile 4060 I have fit perfectly. My only gripe is 2 of the screws to take the hard drive cage out are hard to get unless you have a long Philips.

Well designed small form factor case
I bought one and really liked it so I bought two more. I use these in my Promox server cluster. The 2u space saving really freed up room in my rack. Love having the 2 5.25" drive bays for hard drive expansion. All in all a great case, just make sure you are buying a micro sized motherboard for this as a full size motherboard will not fit due to power supply placement. I may have to tame those bright blue power lights however!I would definitely buy another!

Well Built value chassis
I am giving this 5 stars due to the build quality and the price. That is not to say its not without its flaws, but these are not issues I had to deal with in my build.Good: Price! Quality Build.Cons: A couple of gripes, but any of the changes I would recommended would likely drive the price up beyond its sub $100 price point.Gripe 1.) There are two, 80mm fans at the front. These use Molex adapters (Blah!). I already planned on replacing these with a pair of Artic or Noctua fans for better performance.The location of these fans make it impossible to service them without taking the system apart. They sit between the front vent and the HDD Trays, but tucked under a lip of the front of the case. So to get access to the fans, you would need to remove the Hard DrivesGripe 2.) Same thing with the filter, it is tucked away in an out-of-reach place. My simple fix for this was to remove the foam filter and set it on the outside. The airflow holds it in place but I am going to 3D print a bracket with magnets to keep it there.Meh 3.) Less of a but something to be aware of. The front HDD Trays: This is a shorter chassis (What I wanted) but if you are planning on installing full size HHDs in the Trays, you will have almost zero tolerance between the SATA/Power connectors and your Motherboard. Its VERY tight. If you are going to use SSD's this may not be as big an issue. And if you are like me and not planning on using the trays at all, then hey no issues.I plan on using a couple of 5.25 bay HotSwap HHD Trays from Icy Dock, and there is plenty of room behind those and the Power Supply.Overall, great Case!Pictures:Red Arrow points to where the filter is located between the front and fans. Have to remove HDD Cage as well as Fan Assembly to access Filter, so it was relocated to the outside of the case (Also pictured).Also showing HDD / SSD Clearance.

Good 2u server chassis if you're using like 1-2 SSDs and a micro ATX board.
Pros: vents on top for power supply, racks well if you stack it on another server that's racked in with rails, decent build qualitycons:not much room, I'm currently doing this one with 6 SSDs and it's a little cramped with all the wiring.If you're using more than a single large spinning drive, i wouldn't recommend this chassis.Default fans are kinda cheap, buy 2 80mm Noctua fans they're much quieterhard drive mounts are really built for larger spinning drives, SSDs don't have much mounting options outside of just laying them inside the chassis somewhere

Nice case but design is flawed !
It's a nice case. Well put together. Not bad for the cost. I would have preferred 6 cover screws instead of just 4. As other people have reviewed, the issue comes when installing the HDDs. I guess this depends on the layout of your motherboard. On mine the right side bracket can't be used at all because the drives will cover the main ATX power header and get in the way of the memory cards. Maybe a single SSD at the top position but no full size drives. To mount on the left I had to put the larger drive at the top. For mounting the smaller SSD, I had to drill new mounting holes to shift it to the left (and then cut the corner off the mounting plate. Everything was in the way of the USB(3) header. Any one who can't make modifications should stay away from this case.

Much easier with an ITX board
Rebuilt my existing TrueNAS Core server into this case so I can rackmount it down the road. This case had one of the best layouts I've seen, with the ability to put 4 3.5" drives plus 2 5.25" bays for adapters. For airflow I ended up using a double 5.25" to triple 3.5" bay adapter with an 80mm fan and put all my drives in there. That left the 2 main 80mm fans free to push air to the motherboard and HBA card. I also found an older PSU (Antec EarthWatts) with an 80mm fan to support the front-to-back airflow pattern.Pros:-Good layout, especially with an ITX motherboard-USB 3.0 at the front is nice although my board is too old. It has a USB 2.0 adapter as well-Reasonably solid once top cover is screwed on-Comes with accessory box with screwsCons:-Included fans are quiet but almost useless. I bought 3x 3000rpm Deltas for a few bucks and it sounds and cools like a proper server now. I would always recommend going with Deltas, Sunons, Nidecs, etc over Noctuas unless you just like spending money. Undervolt them if you want it to be quieter.-Kind of flimsy without top cover on, and the top cover is only attached with 4 tiny screws. I'm a little concerned they could get stripped and then the whole case will sag-I had to Dremel around the PSU opening to clear my old PSU's AC plug, haven't had to do that before.
