Review on Fractal Design Node Computer Case by Adam Kowalski ᠌

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Excellent product, the best quality.

So, a case was purchased for a home NAS solution. Compared to others, with such characteristics, it is almost impossible to cram a 6 * 3.5 HDD Experience of use - the fourth year, as assembled) Board - mini ITX with a soldered processor, controller - adaptec5805 (fortunately, client disks are SAS) Thermal regime with one "dvenashka" - 38-46 degrees, depending on the temperature "overboard". A feature of this case is the ability to install a normal power supply. For people trying to collect "maximum performance in a minimal package" - do not warm your head, buy a normal FullTower, otherwise, as in that joke about intelligence, honesty and party spirit, there will be a drawdown somewhere. The case is designed specifically for a solution with a large number of disks and a minimum noise level. It is in this role that it turns out to be used most effectively.

Pros
  • Very compact: similar cases with similar characteristics turned out to be almost 2 times more voluminous. Quite heavy despite the size
Cons
  • As such, there are no shortcomings, except perhaps the price When painting, fill the thread for self-tapping screws with a layer of paint. As a result, assembling for the very first time can cause some inconvenience.
