Looking Inside the Case:

The side panel is held in place via two thumbscrews, making access to inside the case tool-less. The inside is pretty much the standard Chemming ATX602 design. A removable motherboard tray makes installation and removal of the motherboard extremely easy. The motherboard tray is held in place by a pair of thumbscrews, like the side panel. There are five (5) additional hard drive bays that slide in and out, snapping into place. The hard drive bays are located directly behind the two front 80mm intake fans. Also there are four (4) feet that slide out from under the case to give extra stability.

The motherboard try fits all ATX & MicroATX motherboards, and the hard drive trays fit standard 3.5" hard drives. There are plenty of screws included with the case to mount the MB & accessories.

Hidden behind the front 5.25" drive bay panels are the drive rails. This is the best storage location for drive rails that I have seen yet, very creative.

A very nicely equipped laptop that comes with all that you see above for just $539. The new Vostro 1510 is now thinner and lighter than the previous 1500. The 2GB of memory is actually a free upgrade and it comes with a 1 year warranty.

The 6 cell battery for $50 is a good one to upgrade as well and you can even get a 9 cell battery that'll give you 7 hours of usage for $150. Expires 7/31/08. DELL VOSTRO 1510 LAPTOP DEAL
