New "Tarea" mid tower case from Sharkoon

Sharkoon has developed a new mid tower PC case called the Tarea. The case is quite sleek and well designed, the front has a large emphasis on expansion, nine 5.25" inch bays from the top to the bottom all supporting 3.5" and 2.5" drives with the provided adapters. The entire case maintains a smooth black lacquer finish and has meshed front panel 5.25" drive bay covers.

In terms of cooling there is room for an optional 120mm front fan which makes the bottom three 5.25" bays only usable from inside the case so therefore ideal for putting the 3.5" hard drives in. There is also room for two 120mm fans on the sideand one 80 or 120mm fan at the rear A tool less quick locking mechanism is used for most of the 5.25" bays. Behind the motherboard tray is large CPU cut out for after market CPU coolers and plenty of room for good cable management. The front panel has a microphone and headphone jack plus two USB 2.0 ports and an eSATA port.

The case measures 475mm x 200mm x 440mm (L x W x H) and weighs 6.2kg when empty. CPU coolers up to 160mm and graphics cards up to 300mm are supported. The case is very cheap, available for 36.49.
