Bij Chick's Hardware is een review verschenen over de Addtronics 7896A kast. Deze kast is ongetwijfeld één van de grootste ATX kasten en uitgerust met zes externe 5,25” bays, één externe 3,5” bay en drie interne 3,5” bays. Verder is de kast uitgerust met bijna alle opties die je maar kan wensen; drive rails, veel fans, optioneel dual PSU’s en “butterfly” deuren. Al met al een erg degelijke kast, maar wel met een paar minpuntjes. De koeling is standaard niet fantastisch en daarnaast komt de kast met een flink prijskaartje:
If money isn't a problem and you've got some spare time, then this is definitly a good solid case to buy and mod. There are better cases on the market if cooling is on the top of your priorities list and if you take into consideration the cost of this case, you could buy a cheaper tower case and mod it for the same price as a stock 7896A, but then again you wouldn't have all the features that come with this case. But I'd have to say that if your looking at a big roomy case with 4 not 6 drive bays, then take a look at the Lite-on FS020 case as another possibility, as it is my personal favourite for a large case.
So, to conclude, if your looking for a case with 6 drive bays and you NEED the space for that SMP system, ton of hard drives or whatever, then this is defiantly a case to look at, the plethora of user-friendly features does make up for the flaws. But for the normal Joe this case is just too large and probably out of budget. However, this case certainly doesn't appeal to me as a good cooling case "unless" you modified it.
