Aopen HX08 Server Case
There are two kinds of computer junkies in the world when it comes
to cases. First there are those of you who are perfectly content to cram as much
gear as is humanly possible into a tiny, little, puny case with metal so flabby
that it would buckle if you ever leaned on it. Then, there are those of you with
killer computing systems who invest in one of the most popular cases out there -
the HX08 - and enjoy all the benefits of what a 23" tall case has to
offer.
Aside from the sheer volume of space this case contains, the
HX08 is also one of the most modded cases out there. Drill it full of 6" blow
holes, paint it black, shoot it with a shot gun for effect, pack in twenty
different cooling fans, or simply leave it the way it is. Whatever you can throw
at it, the HX08 seems to be able to take it. So, let's move onward and take a
close look at several of the features that make this such a damn fine computer
case!

General Specs:
First, the obligatory specs. If you're
thinking desktop computer think again. At 23" tall, 16" deep, and just under 8"
in width this is a very big case. Depending on your desk, you may even have
trouble fitting it under there. It's also quite a hefty piece of steel, weighing
in at about 30 pounds - and that's empty.
