Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Install your chosen ATX, Micro-ATX, or Mini-ITX motherboard onto the standoffs within the chassis. Connect power supply unit (PSU), storage drives (up to 7 x 3.5" HDDs, 2 x 2.5" SSDs, and 2 x 5.25" ODDs), and expansion cards into the available slots. Connect front panel I/O cables (power, reset, LEDs, USB 2.0) to the motherboard. Secure drives in their respective bays and attach the front door.
Compatibility: Ensure your motherboard adheres to ATX, Micro-ATX, or Mini-ITX standards. Verify that any CPU cooler does not exceed 135mm in height and that installed GPUs are no longer than 270mm. Standard ATX power supplies are typically compatible.
Care: Periodically clean dust from the front fan, rear fan mounts, and interior using compressed air or a soft brush. Ensure the front door lock mechanism remains free of debris. Wipe down the exterior with a slightly damp, soft cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
