How To Select The Right Case

Hydraulic - SF-860B

With a name like the Hydraulic SF-860B, we were not sure what to expect from the folks at Directron. Let's take a look at the specifications for the SF-860B.

As you can see from the specifications, one of the biggest features of the SF-860B is the sliding front door, which hides access to your drive bays. The door action was smooth, and when released, it slowly drops toward the bottom of the case. It might have been nice if the door was lockable.

Removing the side panel reveals easy access to everything. This case is very bare-bones on the inside, and does not offer the bells and whistles that you might have expected from just looking at the outside of the case.
