Interior And Exterior Views, Continued

Inside view

Like the other Aerocool case,there is nothing spectacular about what is inside the Aerocool SSA, which shares the same components and layouts as the 3T. Only the fan controller and its related cables are missing.

Internal case layout:1 = Power supply2 = 5.25" drive bays3 = 3.5" drive bays accessible through the front panel4 = 3.5" drive bays accessible only from inside the case5 = motherboard

The drive cage for 5.25" and 3.5" drive extends from top to bottom inside the case.

Internal header cables for the front panel ports

    I have owned this case previously until a guest "borrowed" (???!!!!) my computer for a few days and I loved it. I had a black one ane my son has the red one. They are absolutely beautiful and although I do not know very much about computer cases I can say that personally neither my son nor I received our cases in anything but a pristine condition. My children gave me this case after my first stroke and I used it and it's components for over 3 years. I play everquest, everquest2,WoW and had over 150 games from GameHouse and BigFishGames on it and it ran perfectly. In my humble opinion, I think it is worth every cent plus more. Not to be argumentative at all, just voicing my opinion 8)
