The portion of the Wind Tunnel's side panel that houses the two 25cm fans protrudes from the side of the case to compensate for the depth of the fans, so there won't be any issues with clearance between your components and the fans. There are also some ventilation holes on the top part of the side panel to let heat escape from the case. - The Review

I just moved my server into this case over the weekend...wow, the server is quieter and the grill for the dual 25cm fans looks great. The temperature on the front is an added bonus so I can easily see how hot the server is at a glance.

I just purchased one of these cases and I am very happy with it.

Just one question though.....


Where exactly is the HDD LED situated?

I can't see anything at all.

The HDD LED activity is located on the front panel, near the digital readout I think. Maybe the header is backwards??

Thanks.

I have always suspected I have the pins reversed, so will switch them round and see if the HDD LED appears.

Case is very good in my opinion. Plenty of room and nice big fans keep it all cool.

Every computer case has an internal speaker. It only beeps, it's not for general use.

Your external speakers are used as normal.

@ anerky99

Too bad you aren't close to New Jersey, USA , I have this case just sitting around collecting dust.

It is a great case, had my server in the wind tunnel for over a year. I move it into the Lian Li case I reviewed a few months back. The only thing that broke is the LED display of the temperature. Mad
