Update: The Case appears to be 100% plastic upon taking another look at it. Someone just advised to 'check under the feet' and that didn't bear fruit. My assessment -revised- is that the case is constructed of a 5 sided box with openings at front and rear for firewire jacks and the drive door area respectively. The bottom plate looks to be a snap in affair at the ends, but the side seams are damn near perfect and I wonder if they're glued in. I mis-remembered it being a metal box. Dang thing annoys me. To tell the truth, seeing flying shards would be pretty satisfying!
