The enclosure is constructed of 18 gauge steel, clear zinc plated for corrosion protection and an attractive appearance. The front panel is attractively detailed and is of heavier gauge than the chassis.

There is more than ample drive storage. Provided is mounting for two external 5.25 inch drives and one external 3.5 inch drive plus an internal 2.5 inch drive. The 2.5 inch drive location is ideal for solid state flash devices.

Cooling is provided by two fans with a third fan optional. The fans provide tach signals for failure detection by the motherboard.
