Cheap case is cheap case
For what I needed it to do, it worked. I have it as a Plex media server and repurposed my old computer parts for this build.Pros:Cheap, comes with two fans (shows more in the photos which is misleading.)I did like the sliding panel that opens up to get your video card in. My main PC (cool master case) does not have this option and its a pain to get the video card in, but not with this case.Cons:For my motherboard at least its a TIGHT fit. My SATA ports but right up against the HDD rack, needed to use L ends. It was over just a smidge it would be perfect.The Front Fans are not friendly to mount, I was able to push the HHD rack a smidge to wedge the fans in, would be a bigger issue if the HDD's were already installed.

Great, Affordable Tower Case for Storage Lovers
Look, it's a budget case - well designed and thought through. They even left a free USB port available on the bezel to add your own USB C port.All 10 3.5 inch drive bays are toolless and don't require threading all your power and SATA cables to the rear of the chassis - the drive 'backs' face toward the open left side where your power supply and motherboard sit.The drive trays are light weight plastic, but should be great if you're not changing HDDs frequently.2.5 inch drive trays are also light weight plastic and easily removable with a press on the back - which makes attaching 2.5 inch SSDs a breeze.The fans are basic - but I can't comment on their performance qualities because I used ones from a previous build.All that said, I can't use the case because they only provided 6 stand-offs to secure the motherboard to the case.I'm using an ATX case and there are stand-offs missing which are required for the stability of the motherboard 24 pin power, SATA, USB and other connectors - you can't press down to connect them.I do agree with another review that attaching SATA cables can be frustrating, but that's if your motherboard has front facing SATA ports, which mine does. I don't fault the case for this, as the case does confirm to the ATX standard and it's the motherboard manufacturer who is in the grey area here - although it would be nice if there was more space provided for such situations.I bought a dual SATA 90°angled connector (x2) and for me, that worked great.A little packet of spare screws were tucked away behind the bezel and contained everything I expected.This case, with an appropriate motherboard makes a great Plex Server.

10 hard drive bays in a Mid-Tower case
Pros:10 3.5" hdd bays + some additional sdd bays for plenty of storage.Case fans positioned right in front of the hhd bays to keep them cool.The 10 hdd trays provide very easy access.Cons:Should come with all 3 front case fans, or be less expensive and come with none.Make sure you have enough SATA power and data cables with 90 degree mounts to clear the side cover.Front cover gets "ALL" incoming air from two 1/4" strip vents on the edge of the front cover. I removed the center front panel (6 Phillips screws) and replaced it by a fine screen to get better air flow thru the fans.All drives ran under 98 degrees max when not sleeping (was 117 without the screen mod).

Wont fit full size graphics card.
Was excited for the multiple HDD capabilities until I went to install my EVGA 3070 graphics card. Wont fit. Not even my dual fan 1070ti would fit. I had to take out the center 4 hdd drive bays to accommodate a GPU. Now the upper HDD bay is floppy and I lost crucial HDD space. Definitely a design flaw. I would have gone with a different case if i knew this ahead of time.
