Packaging Continued

Packaging Rear


Opening the box up reveals the inner contents with the product manual being right up front tucked into the packing foam. Also included is the standard assortment of screws of various sizes, as well as a PC speaker and an installation manual. Inside the case is also a set of three tool-less drive lockers; One for optical drives, one for a floppy drive, and one for a 3.5" drive.

Packaging Internals


As mentioned earlier, the exterior of the box was dented on arrival, but the design of the packaging kept anything from being damaged.
