The beautiful Fractal Design Define R5 (Black) case I have specified,
is
definitely brand name.
It does look very nice. It violates just one of my case rules. It
has
a door in front of the optical drive. I don't like those, because
they
can break your optical drive if software ejected. Of course if you
don't
intend to have an optical drive which is very much a valid option
these
days, then that doesn't matter, and it does make it look very clean.
I have been using the Silverstone TJ04-E myself lately.
Ooooh -- nasty !! A case that is designed to destroy optical drives.
I do plan to use an optical drive. As the initial HDD backup method. And
for OS installation.
Looked at the Silverstone TJ04-E. It should work fine (internal
clearances look OK).
So I will change the specification from Fractal Design to Silverstone.
Once again, GTALUG humbles this old guy ...
