Silverstone DS380
The DS380 is Silverstone's latest computer chassis aimed directly at users who are building their own NAS. The body of the Silverstone DS380 has been constructed of steel, while only the front door is made of aluminum. The DS380 comes exclusively in black with a brushed aluminum front door that opens to expose the eight 3.5" hot-swappable drive bays.

Still, if you're hell-bent on building your own NAS and don't have a suitable chassis, the DS380 probably presents the best option, even if it isn't without a few kinks. From here, it would really be something if Silverstone moved to include larger 10 and 12-bay models...

There's no doubt that the DS380 will out-live many other PC cases. It's extremely sturdy indeed and had enough airflow to deal with plenty of hard disks and some fairly decent hardware. We've got no qualms about recommending it if no other mini-ITX...

The upshot of course of this lack of ATX PSU support is that if you're planning to build into this case and are hoping to cannibalise an older PC then odds are it's PSU is going to end up somewhere gathering dust. But like we say, we're just being picky, and suspect that in the coming months we're going to see the number of cases requiring the use of SFX PSUs, and therefore the choices available increase steadily.

Podremos encontrar a la venta la SilverStone DS380 con un precio oficial de 149.90 euros, algo más barata una vez sea listada en las principales tiendas del sector. El precio puede asustar, pero su capacidad de almacenamiento, diseño y robustez son sus 3 puntos fuertes y seguro resultará muy atractiva a muchos usuarios.

Als de enige consequentie is dat je wat extra dunne kabeltjes wilt halen, of de ventilatoren op 7V wilt modden, zal je dat vermoedelijk net als ik graag op de koop toenemen, want aan elke andere alternatieve overweging hangt vermoedelijk een flink een grotere consequentie.

There are three important aspects to consider when selecting an NAS enclosure for your DIY build. You'll want as small a size with as small a footprint as possible, you'll want an efficient design with space for all your drives and other parts, and...

The SilverStone DS380 is a small form factor case that fits DTX & Mini-ITX motherboards. What separates this case for others is that it fits up to 12 drives. This case looks excellent, the build quality is great, it includes three 120mm fans with dust...

Die Bewertungskriterien für ein "normales" Mini-ITX-Gehäuse anzulegen, würde dem DS380 nicht gerecht werden. Natürlich eignet es sich nicht für die Unterbringung von High-End-Hardware, weil Grafikkartenlänge, Prozessorhöhe und TDP klar limitiert werden...

Es fällt ein wenig schwer, das neue Silverstone DS380 kategorisierend in eine eindeutige Schublade zu stecken, denn der Winzling gibt sich vielseitig, ungewöhnlich, aber gleichzeitig durchaus durchdacht. Dadurch empfiehlt es sich für eine ganze Reihe von...
