Removing the Frontal Panel

FHardware Secrets Golden Awardor installing drives on this case you need to remove its frontal panel. To do that, simply pull the three plastic latches that hold the panel to the case, see Figure 13. Then the frontal panel will swing to your right-hand side, as shown on Figure 14. The interesting thing is that you can remove the panel by just lifting it, as shown on Figure 15.

On Figure 16 you can see the front of the case without its plastic frontal panel and there is a lot to talk about it.

As you can see there is dust filter in front of the hard disk drives cage. This dust filter can be removed for cleaning (Figure 17).
