The Node 304's modular mounting system holds up to six 3.5" or 2.5" drives, which makes it a strong base for a NAS or file server. Need room for a long graphics card instead? Remove two HDD brackets and the case accepts cards up to 310 mm, so you can tune the interior to your build.
Three Silent Series R2 hydraulic bearing fans come pre-installed: two 92 mm fans at 1300 RPM up front and a 140 mm fan at 1000 RPM at the rear. A built-in controller manages all three, while removable filters on the front intake, PSU and graphics card help keep dust away from your components.
Despite measuring just 250 × 210 × 374 mm, the case takes standard ATX power supplies up to 160 mm long, tower CPU coolers up to 165 mm tall and single-fan water cooling systems. The brushed aluminium front panel keeps the look clean and understated.
Home users building a NAS or media centre, gamers wanting a compact Mini-ITX rig, and office users who need a quiet, tidy desktop.
