SUPERMICRO CSE-743TQ-865B case

[jholty]

Hello,

I’m preparing to purchase a SUPERMICRO CSE-743TQ-865B case for my home server build. I have a few questions that I hope you can help me with.

1. Does this case include any type of dust filters?
a. If so, are they removable and washable
2. Is this chassis compatible with a standard ATX motherboard?
a. I plan to use one of these four motherboards for my build, can you provide feedback on compatibility?
i. ASUS Sabertooth X58 LGA 1366 Intel X58 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 ATX Intel Motherboard
ii. ASUS P6T6 WS Revolution with NF200 3xPCIe true x16 LGA 1366 Intel X58 ATX Intel Motherboard
iii. ASUS P6T7 WS Supercomputer "Ultimate Gamer" choose 3Way SLI + PhysX at Real X16 X58 CEB Intel Motherboard
iv. EVGA Classified SR-2 270-WS-W555-A2 LGA 1366 Intel 5520 SATA 6Gb/s USB 3.0 HPTX Intel Motherboard
3. I plan to use Western Digital 2TB RE4 drives. Are there any compatibility problems with using SATA drives? The RE4 series drives are Enterprise class drives.
4. I plan to use an areca ARC-1222 PCIe x8 SATA / SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) RAID Card. Are there any compatibility issues with this card?


Thank you in advance for any help you can provide me.

Thanks for the link, but I've searched there already. It lists compatiblility with E-ATX boards, but does not specificy if it will also work with standard ATX boards.
