Review on 💻 InWin 301 Black Tempered Glass Premium Micro-ATX/Mini-ITX Gaming Computer Case by Grant Galloway

I am a computer fitter with 35 years of experience. I really do NOT know what the engineers were thinking when designing this case. Your big problem will be running cables and installing 2.5" drives. The holes are not in the best location for modern motherboards. " drives. This makes it IMPOSSIBLE to connect hard drive cables. While I prefer to use NVME drives installed on the board, you're going to have a real nightmare if you go with a 2.5" SSD. And this is where I just don't understand WHY InWin doesn't conduct surveys of thousands of professional builders they sell to.It's so obvious that their designers have no contact with real builders and are just building theory.I say that because as soon as you try to install an SDD in ONE PLACE it can be installed, you will find that both metal and plastic are blocking the power cord and SATA cable connectors from accessing the drive, no matter how you rotate the drive, the problem remains WHAT DID THESE ENGINEERS THINK There's a front baffle blocking SATA ports for motherboards with side-facing SATA ports It's STUPID for Boa rd manufacturers to take a sideways look at SATA connectors, and it's been a fight against it For over a decade there have been cases against boards where OEMs are too stubborn to cooperate. In this particular case, there is a flat area on the board that would be ideal for InWin to add a tool-less mount for 2.5" SSDs. They actually do this in other cases, so why they've ignored that possibility is beyond me. The total time it took me to assemble the case and components was over two hours. It's crazy. and although it is a beautiful body because of the magnetic glass window and the appearance. It was an absolute nightmare to build. I ended up having to use double sided tape to attach the SSD. (on top of the front bulkhead, which is NOT the professional solution I would like for this case.
