SilverStone PS05B Mid Tower Black Chassis
Aug 25th, 2010 | By JaredNow that I have the side panel removed we get the view of the inside. The entire inside is painted black.
Both of the 5.25″ and 3.5″ bays as well as the hard drive mounts are tool free designs. The drive bays use a sort of rocking lever that locks once the drive is slid into place. Each of the hard drive mounts employ sound dampening posts to help reduce any noise generated by the hard drives.
There are two removable fan filters on the bottom of the case, one for the power supply and one for an optional fan. A 9 bladed fan provides exhaust for the PS05. The motherboard tray has a cutout to help with aftermarket heatsink installations.
The plastic panel that we saw earlier along the back rotates out to release the PCI covers. Screw holes are provided should you want a firmer method to secure your PCI devices.
There is room in the top of PS05 for two 120mm fans. Unlike most cases, these fans are installed tool free in a top panel that pulls out from the top of the case.
On the backside most of the room for hiding wires and cables is actually behind the hard drive area.
Now it is time to see what kind of experience installing hardware into the PS05 presents.
