Accessories:
The image below details all of the other included items. There is a cord for the power supply, two sets of feet for the case to stand on its side, a bag of hardware and expansion slot covers, and a rear I/O panel.
Case manufacturers should honestly just give up on including rear I/O panels, I don't think I have ever had one remotely close to usable.
Installation and Operation:
This portion of the review won't go into every detail of the installation, but will focus on a few key steps. For example, the images below show the drives attached to the appropriate cages. The below left image shows a Seagate SATA hard drive screwed onto the hard drive cage, while the below right image shows a Memorex DVD-ROM screwed to the 5.25" drive cage. The installation of drives to the cages is not tool-less, but installing the cages back into the chassis is.
The images below show all the drive cages back in place. The hard drive cage hinges back into place and locks with two plastic tabs. The 5.25" and 3.5" cages slide in from the front, and really won't be secured until the case's cover is installed. This is enough to hold everything in place, but you may optionally make things even more secure with a few screws threaded into holes found on the sides of the cages.
