Snazzy outside, plain inside.
Inside the ExtremEngine 3T, you won't find too much out of the ordinary. A drive cage that extends from top to bottom offers lots of room for 5.25" and 3.5" drives. There is also another 120 mm fan pre-installed for ample drive cooling.

Internal case layout:
1 = Power Supply
2 = 5.25" drive bays
3 = 3.5" drive bays, also accessible from the case front
4 = 3.5" drive bays only accessible from inside the case
5 = motherboard

An illuminated 120 mm fan is installed right in front of the drive cage.
