The Front Panel
Hardware Secrets Golden Award

Opening the door we have access to the four 5 ¼” and one 3 ½” external bays from P183, which use meshed covers with built-in washable dust filters, which is great to improve the case internal airflow and, at the same time, prevent dust from entering the case. On the front panel you can also see the intake from the two optional 120-mm fans, also protected by washable dust filters.

Figure 5: One of the bay covers, see how it is meshed and features a dust filter.

This case has two USB ports and one eSATA port, besides the headphones and microphone jacks. Having an eSATA is mandatory on a high-end case, however the two USB ports are too close to each other, what may prevent you from installing two “fat” USB devices at the same time.
