On the inside of the case, behind the front bezel, we pointed out the intake system. Here you see the 12cm intake. This intake system is filtered with a washable foam filter that can be seen on the upper right picture. This is a great design that will cut down on scheduled maintenance by keeping the components cleaner, longer!

Here is a perfect example of how the double doors operate. For easy access to the CDRW or DVDRW, you simply open the first door. Then to service the 5.25” devices you can open up the device door and access the peripherals. In order to lock the front door properly both doors have to be fully closed to secure the doors.

Thermaltake made this rail system as easy as can be. With a Tool-Free design that plugs into the machine threads on any device, anyone can simply press fit this to any device and install it by sliding the device into the self locking rail system.

Once I installed the rails, I inserted the DVD-RW into the desired slot until it locked in place with a audible "click".  Now thats easy and fast!

 


This is the Soprano fully installed and ready to rock and roll. This case is very user friendly and easy to work on. The expansion capabilities are great in that you have plenty of room for add-on's and tweaks.

 

 

 

With elegance, clean lines, excellent construction, the Soprano is a very well built beauty that is sure to please the anyone. The black finish and optional side panel window is nothing short of great style, functionality and awesome looks.

A back shot of the rear device panel showing the I/O plate, expansion slot, fan configuration. The lay-out of the back panel is nice and user friendly. The 3 tabs to the right of the expansion slots are part of the Tool-Free locking device and it can be removed so dual slot cards can be screwed in manually.

The beautiful Mirror-Coating really stands out in this shot, while its elegant and pleasing to the eyes, dust, lint and finger prints stand out. However if you are a clean freak and use the included cloth to keep it clean you can manage fairly well.

This angle shot gives clear detail to the double door design that makes this case unique and easily servicable.
