How is the FT01 really? I'm really close to pulling the trigger on this case but I need to know the $200 is justified.

Well, quality is excellent, great design, good cooling (positive air pressure design, works very well

), dust filters, quiet 180mm fans, sound dampening material even on a windowed side... Only down side, from my point of view is the HDD mounting system... It's extremely easy but hard drives vibrate somehow, i don't know what they did wrong... I had P182 before, my 6400AAKS was absolutely totaly quiet, but with this case, it isn't... I solved the problem with some elastic rope (i don't know how you call it in english) and a little bit of creativity, now it's silent, totaly

All in all, it's an excellent case, maybe the price is a little bit high, but not much... I think it's worth it

Thanks for that. I bought it =D. Thats was my entire last paycheck. Oh the woes of a college student. Would rubber gommets solve the HDD vibration issues you think? And I heard it have weak side panels and the cable management side was too small with the sound foam so main power connectors couldn't fit with side panel on? Just wondering if that is true.

Vule · 03-13-09

I had to remove the foam from the right side to allow cables to pass through, it's impossible to close otherwise...

Hard drive cages have rubber gommets already, but it's some kind of hard rubber, i don't know, it just doesn't work right... Maybe someone won't hear anything, i'm extremely noise sensitive so it's a problem for me

Post some pics when it arrives

happyxix · 03-13-09

Dammit... Thats what I was afraid of. I want the foam on for noise purposes. It is much louder with the foam off? I'll attempt to get some pics but all I have is a camera phone haha... they gonna be some horrible quality pictures.
