The first feature that should stick out to you is the anti-vibration HDD cage. Movement of the HDDs is a concern on any modern computer as HDD data can be corrupted by vibration. Lian-Li built in a anti-vibration HDD rack onto the case. Each of the computers HDDs rest in a tray that is held into place by a foam cover. It holds the HDDs very securely. The case design also has a joined front panel, meaning that it is also vibration-less.
The case is all-aluminum construction like every Lian-Li case on the market. One note, when picking up the box for the case for the first time I was amazed at how lightweight it was. Other features like the easily removed top cover, the two silent running 1000RPM ball bearing fans and the rounded edges will be covered in the relevant portions of the review. Note that the case is being marketed in the under $100 price range but has many high-end case features.
