Review on πŸ–₯️ SilverStone Grandia Series GD09B: Premium Aluminum HTPC Computer Case for ATX / SSI-CEB - Black by Nick Esquibel

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Poor interior and wiring

I had a standard ATX board that I wanted to fit into an HTPC case, but needed full access to the DVD drive, front USB and headphone jacks ie. there was no front door, and in fact it was the only one I could find. One thing you need to know about this is that if anything goes wrong or if you ever want to change anything, you will have to completely disassemble the entire computer. If you've always wanted to install a 2.5" drive where it's supposed to be, the first thing you need to do is remove the motherboard. It's the size of a mini-ATX case (draw one on the side), but it's a nightmare if you ever have to go back inside to do anything. It would be 1,000 times better if they actually thought about building in components instead of fans. I would categorically NOT buy this again. 2 stars only because there is no front door. Zero stars for interior design.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Annoying
