Getting inside
First thing I noticed when the box landed on my door was how big it is. I knew this was gonna be a server case....and the box certainly helped reaffirm that. But, although the box was bigger than some, I jerked it off the ground so fast I alsmost did a backflip (matrix style) because the box was much lighter than it appeared =)

It even came in a nice big full color box reassuring me as to its contents.

I continued to open it up and get her out of the box where I could take a good look at it. (the table of course) and give it the "pat-down" for any weapons. (sharp points). Smooth as silk it was. The case features all aluminum construction and leaves the natural brushed aluminum finish to it. It is quite attractive.

 

 
You can see this baby is all about drive bay's and space!

Now let's take a look at what makes this PCMods.com PC-70 alittle different from the "stock" PC-70. This PC-70 I received came with the new server window cutout in its side. PCMods custom designed this window shape for this case which in itself shows their dedication to providing the best possible solution to a given project. Noone else has dared such a feet as cutting up the first batch of PC-70's to hit the US. But with tons of research as they have done they were confident they could pull it off and I think they did very well. They could've just slapped one of the smaller window kits on it and saved themselves some trouble but they wanted to do it right. Let's a take a closer look at the PCMods.com PC-70.

 

 

Again you see the beautiful finish but also the custom window design.The window was designed to show off only the parts of the interior you wanna show off. The gentle curves cover up the PSU area and all the drive bays and hard drive bays. What's left is only open space to display.Excellent job in my opinion! You'll notice that this case is ALL thumbscrews. Everything. even all the drive bays inside had large quality thumbscrews. ( no cheapy screws here) There was also a set of fold-out feet included (already attached) to the case. They are plastic( NOT ALUMINUM )but painted to match and provided adequate support without any fear of a rollover =)

The contents of the case combo I received was :
