    Perfect for replacing the case of an "old" computer

    I bought this Advance GRAFIT case to replace the one on my LDLC PC7 SSD-FRACKASS whose front panel ports were very tired.
    I chose this product because the motherboard (Asrock H61M-DGS) is not USB-3 compatible. On one of the pictures, you can see a USB-2 connector next to the USB-3 connector.
    So I plugged the USB-2 connector on the motherboard. Of course, in this configuration, the front panel ports are downgraded to USB-2.
    This case easily holds a DVD burner and three hard disks, and there is still plenty of room.
    The only tiny complaint is that the (red) hard drive activity LED is not very visible, while the (blue) system power LED is clearly visible.
    A perfect case for an eventual evolution.

    Does the job

    Efficient case that gives a real impression of solidity. Perfect for small and medium budget configurations. It remains to be seen how it will age over time but for the moment, it's all good!

    Not Mal.

    Well made box.
    Very light but very complete.
    It is easy to insert drives, SSDs (although the reserved slot is not usable because it is too deep) and HDDs.
    Just a hole for the power supply that was not drilled...

    Enough for an entry-level case!

    Perfect

    I have to say that I'm very pleased with the quality of this product. The only problem is that I didn't get the HDD fixings, which I'm sure you'll have to buy separately. I'm sure I'll be able to use it again in the future.

    Nothing to complain about

    Sober presentation outside, well thought out inside. No problems during assembly (fan, power supply, dvd player, hd, and finally the cm [micro-atx] equipped). All connected without any problem. I was worried about the length of the front connections, but it is more than enough. Non-invasive LEDs, a plus for a pc installed in a corner of the living room.

    Correct but no more

    Product without worries but limited in terms of rigidity, the materials are thin!
