Installation:

If we take a closer look in the internal of the case you can also see that this case indeed have a removable motherboard tray.
This is a welcome sight, as this unfortunately not a standard practice. It is so much more convenient to mount your motherboard onto a tray.

To remove the tray you only have to remove a small bracket attached with a thumbscrew, then slide the tray out.

The motherboard mounted onto the tray, and installed into the case.

Installing the supplied fan was very easy, It came with some rubber fan fasteners that replace the screws. Just align the fan fasteners with the four mounting holes on the case, and pull them fully through the mounting holes. I also decided to install a fan in the front, so I used one of my spare 120mm’s that I had lying around. I just screwed it onto the plate and slid it right into place.

Installing the cd-rom and hard drives was also a breeze; the cd-rom was installed the usual way by screwing some rails onto it and just sliding it in until it snapped in place.

The hard drive installation is a little different then the "usual procedure", first you remove the sleds from the hard drive cage. Here you see that there is some rubber mounting grommets, to avoid vibrations.

Then just screw the hard drives onto the hdd sleds, and slide them in.

And here’s the system fully assembled, looks pretty nice doesn’t?
