4.0 out of 5 stars good quality but be aware of the size, September 12, 2008

By	Long Pan "polo90" (Greenbrae, CA United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a very compact and solid case, as expected. But i wasn't able to fit in my old CD/DVD drive. So I had to buy a new one. And it's not very easy to put two hard disks and one DVD drive into the case. To fit better into the space, you may want to make sure all your drives are running on SATA interface.
The nice thing about this case? it is quiet.

5.0 out of 5 stars Spartan and efficient, August 17, 2009

I initially ordered this item on a whim and started having serious buyer's remorse once it arrived. That said, the Antec EA-380 slowly started to grow on me and I consider it to be a wonderful investment. It is a spartan and very sturdy case, which I like. Also, it doesn't have all of the ridiculous led's and features some cases come with. This beast is made of thick, cold rolled sheet steel, probably 14 gauge and a plastic facade. Empty, it weighs about the same as my Lian Li PC-A70 all aluminum E-ATX full tower (~20 lbs)!

I purchased this item for $90 in September or so of 2008, free shipping with an 80% plus power supply included in the deal. In retrospect this was a steal. I had intended to use it as a Home Theater PC, but the aesthetics just didn't fit, so I've made it a workstation in the mean-time and it performs this task very well.

Do note, you will need some clever cable management skills, as the PSU is not modular and is situated on top at the rear, and if you intend to fill both of the top bays, well... good luck. Also, you will need to purchase some after market fans to keep this little guy cool - 1*120 exhaust and 2*92 mm intake fans, but it can handle a top end video card, maybe two if you upgraded the power supply. I had to perform some minor case modifications in the way of enlarging a cable port; no big deal when you have a Milwaukee 12 Amp angle grinder on hand!

I would recommend the following configuration, two Blu/DVD drives and internally, two 64GB Solid State Drives in RAID 0, with a 2.5" laptop 500 gb drive for storage, or a plain old 1 TB Hard drive, they're cheap enough. I believe you can mount three smaller drives with relative ease. Mine runs on a single 128 GB SSD with Windows 7 and an average quad core CPU but is very quick. This was an excellent buy with reasonable room for expansion within a mATX form factor; you get the case, power supply as well as two external and two internal drive mounts. It is an excellent multi-tasker and at the price of a power supply unit or ram alone, quite a deal!

NB: I'd seriously use laptop drives in this case and upgrade the stock fan, most mATX boards come with at least three headers.
