There are several spiders crawling on the X-Mask SF-462 case from Superflower, which probably rules out women as a target group. We'll leave the design aspect to our readers - beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all. Behind the front door are the bays for four 5.25" and three 3.5" drives. The front door opens up to a 160 degree angle, but its front panel and hinge are plastic and break off easily.

Spider legs adorn the plastic front

The eyes of the spider only light up when the machine is on.
