Inside Fortress FT01 (Cont’d )
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

The reviewed case has a dust filter for the power supply, which must be installed with its fan facing down. This filter, however, must be unscrewed to be washed, contrary to what happens to the other dust filters available on this case, which can be easily removed using your hands.

On Figure 11 we show the dust filter from the front fan, which is accessible from inside the case only.

If you have very long video cards (12”, i.e. 30 cm) you can remove the top hard disk drive cage, see Figure 12. In this case you lose four hard disk drive bays.

Let’s now take an in-depth look on the disk drive options from the reviewed case.
