Behind door No.1 is... door No.2
Opening the door reveals the extent of the plastic used in the fascia, including a somewhat-hypnotic fan-grill down the bottom.
Power and reset buttons are located on the right along with LEDs power and HDD activity.
With the door closed, though, these informative lights are hidden.
With six external drive bays – four 5.25in and two 3.5in – there's plenty of room for expansion.
Inside the door, the wiring for the bubble tube is on show. That's a bit of a letdown but at least the job has been pretty neatly done and there is no risk of snagging the wires when opening the door.
A magnetic catch stops the door opening of its own accord and there's also an L-shaped mechanical latch mounted on the door.
The latch is part of a clever dual-locking mechanism. As you can see below, the door has single lock but this has two functions, well, three, actually.
Turn it one way and the front door opens. Turn it the other and the fascia swings away with the door. That reveals the front of the case proper and gives access to the external drive bays and the fan filter. Crafty or what?
The third function, you'll probably have guessed, is simply to act as a lock. The front door and facia are secured in place when the lock is in its middle position.
Down the bottom is a filter that sits in front of a pre-fitted front fan. Just in case you hadn't noticed, the drive bay covers are screwed in place – so you don't have to break them free. We like that but, sadly, it's a rarity these days even on pricey cases.
