Cooltek C3

I see what you did there with the wink smiley face

Page 3 says, "Tipping the chassis on its side reveals a simple metal mesh dust filter and a set of mounting holes for a 3.5" hard drive on the floor of the interior."

Page 4 says, "The third mounting possibility for a 2.5" hard drive is on the floor, all the way in the front."

Which one is correct?

I feel like there should have been a harsher penalty for the lack of drive mounting options. They could have made the chassis 1cm wider and put twin 2.5" mounts behind the motherboard tray, then setup the other 3 mounts for 3.5" drives.

The space between the second card and the top of the PSU is too small. The side mounting braket is kinda silly and would require extended sata cables. The top metal sheet is bent it, seems too thin. Nice idea overall but does not seem too rigid, like FT05 for instance.
