There is no other way to describe this case other than its huge. There are 10 internal 3.5" drive bays split into 6 and 4, the drives are mounted in removable trays and are screwed through noise dampers. The case is also lined with neoprene to reduce noise and has plenty of fan's for ventilation.
The case is split into three zones for cooling.
There is also a nice large fan above the CPU location and to the rear of the CPU is a 140mm fan.
On my build i did not attach a fan to the CPU cooler as the top and rear fans draw more than enough cool air over the CPU cooler to allow it to work properly.
The front of the case isn't amazingly attractive. I've removed the front door to allow for better access to the front drives with limited space.
