Default Cabinet: Zebronics Rock server case

Zebronics Rock Computer case

Introduction
This time i am here to review a cabinet. this is my first cabinet review so don't flame me for any mistakes . i came across this cabinet 2 days ago and found it really impressive. Its a server cabinet with lots of mounting points and space. The cabinet is having a big front door with horizontal vents for air. The front door is lockable, above the front door there are the LED lights for power, HDD, 2 x network and 1 with exclamation mark on it, i don't know what is it maybe something for server boards lol .

Picture of the cabinet Front






Design
The front door locking mechanism is pretty good and it doesn't feel flimsy or lose. Reset and power switch are inside the front door. The whole front part of the cabinet is perforated so air intake won't be a problem.






Inside the front door there are 4 USB and audio connectors.








The front door is also having a big dust filter which is removable and washable .




In the rear it comes with 120mm fan. the fan is having a 3 pin connector so it can be thermally controlled. there is provision for 2x60mm fans in the rear and one 120mm intake in the front. it can take normal PSU or redundant PSUs which is generally used in servers.




The motherboard tray is having many holes for mounting coz its a server case.








Side panel is having holes for air ventilation.



there is handle in the side panel for removing it.




There are 6 front LEDs as i said earlier.




After installing the components in the cabinet.






accessories

There are many accessories provided with the case. all the mouting screws are provided. then there are rails for mounting the 5.25" and 3.5" drives. Four cable ties are also there in the package. there are some optional accesories like harddisk mounting box. the case is having mouting points for 2 harddisk on the sides. there is also a harddisk box available which can hold upto 5 harddisks. so u can either have 8 x 5.25" and 2 x 3.5" HDDs or 5 x 5.25" and 7 x 3.5".
there are two types of foot provided with the cabinet. one is rubber type normal and another extended type, as seen in the pics











Build and finishing
The case is very heavy and big. finishing of paint and inside of the cabinet is very good and it has a feel good factor. The dimention of the cabinet is 220(w)x600(d)x427(h). its is made fron 0.8mm-1.2mm material. weight of the cabinet is 13Kg without PSU.



Verdict

I think this is pretty good cabinet for gaming machines. It is available in 2 colors white and black. price of this product is 5500/- with all taxes. PSU is not included with the case. The cabinet looks more expensive than it is.





PS: the LED on front panel with exclamation mark on it is for fan failure warning.

Wow neat Review Rahul. Server chassis looks pretty solid.

Those lan activity leds make it look cool. But how do you attach them ?? I mean do we need special server motherboard where in u can use the Lan activity LEDs ??

Also that vertically mounted HDD looks cool .
Is it a screwless type of cabbie ??
