Pros

Well designed.
No resonance sounds.
Well priced.
External SATA slot.
Lots of working room.
Good tool-free installation options.
Plenty of cooling options.
External HDD bay.
Stylish design with all-black interior.
Enough cable management features.
No sharp edges inside.
Support for 240mm radiator in top and/or bottom.

Cons

The 1200RPM stock cooling may be a bit lacking for more demanding users.
You can't use standard 80mm fans in the right side panel and VGA bracket, they have to be slim 15mm models.
Side panels require a lot of force to be removed.
Not enough dust filters.
No room for 12inch videocards unless you remove the lower four hard drive bays.
My mATX Still had to be Removed to Install Cooler.
