Introduction:

   It's been about 2 months since I have reviewed an enclosure from Thermaltake. That was the Thermaltake Armor LCS Liquid Cooled ATX Chassis, which is a large enclosure compared to the Tt LANBOX VF1000SWA that I just received. The Tt LANBOX is a mini enclosure that will hold a Mini-ITX or micro ATX motherboard. The enclosure itself is made from aluminum and clear acrylic side panels (on certain models) to keep the LANBOX light. A carrying handle is incorporated into the top of the LANBOX to help make travel easy from LAN to LAN.

About Thermaltake:

Thermaltake Technology Co., Ltd. started its core business based on our extensive knowledge of PC thermal management during the era where the area of performance CPU cooling was only exclusive for "overclockers" or PC enthusiasts. With the company's initial launch of Orb coolers, it created waves of shocks and appraisals throughout the gaming and overclocking communities. Thermaltake quickly became the name gamers turn to when they need high-end and reliable thermal solutions.

With company's core business of CPU cooling still growing at a vast rate, Thermaltake made another grand entry to the PC chassis industry. To date, Thermaltake has always been considered as the pioneering company that revolutionized the PC chassis industry with Xaser series enclosures. The typical and traditional beige and plastic front panel design was outdone by Xaser series chassis's atypical gaming red and aluminum front panel. It was also the first enclosure available to public with Hardcano unit which provided users full control over computer's thermal management system.

    The Tt LANBOX arrived via FedEx in the retail box. This box has a carrying handle on it and the delivery guy had a smile on his face, wishing all his packages had carrying handles. The front of the box has a picture of the enclosure with a person holding the LANBOX. The back side has all the features of the enclosure, while the side has the specifications.
