Introduction

M9 is a 9-bay mid-tower case recently released by Thermaltake, available with an acrylic side panel (VI1000BWS, which is the model we reviewed) or with a solid side panel (VI1000BNS), coming with a rear 120-mm fan, a front 120-mm fan and a side duct. Let’s take a good look on this latest Thermaltake release.

On Figure 4 you can see the jacks and buttons present on the case frontal panel: power and reset buttons, hard disk drive activity LED, two USB ports and mic in and headphones jacks. No eSATA port is provided.

On Figure 5 you can see the rear panel, using the very traditional ATX design, but with the addition of one big 120-mm fan there. This case uses two thumbscrews to hold the left side panel (the one that must be removed for installing parts inside the case).
