Exterior:
The front of the case is pretty plain, but it does offer a little different look. The door and the hinges are made out of plastic, which helps keep the weight down, but don't push the door open too far. The door includes 2 LED indicators for power and hard drive activity; these are located in the top two "buttons". The bottom two buttons are the power switch and the reset switch. Opening the door, you can see the actual case is pretty plain. The front of the case is flat, and solid gunmetal black. There are five (5) 5.25 drive bays, and two (2) 3.5 drive bays. Below the drive bays, you have a 120mm case fan intake. If you prefer, you can also get the Silent Storm with a solid black front door.
On the side of the case, you have a few things that stand out. First is a 80mm fan mount. The fan was not included, but you can easily install any 80mm fan. This fan hole is directly above the area where your CPU will be installed. Secondly, there is a square hole that is not really usable for anything, except as a way for the hot air from the video cards to escape from the case. Finally, at the front of the case you have the usual front ports, which include Firewire (not installed), microphone, 2 - USB 2.0 ports, and headphone ports.
Here is the back of the case, as you can see there isn't anything very unusual back here. You have a single 120mm exhaust fan, motherboard port key, and PCI expansion slots.
As you can see here, Sunbeamtech has included everything you need to complete the install of the case. There is a simple installation manual, which goes over all aspects of the install. They have also included a little bag with an assortment of screws, and another little bag with the motherboard stand-offs. Finally, you can see the hard drive rails. These aren't anything fancy, they simply snap into the screw holes of your hard drive, and then the entire assembly slides into the hard drive cage inside the case.
