Doesn't look too shabby.
Nice and easy to setup.

Would be good if they did it in popular case colours such as black/silver etc.

Looks a bit 80's appliance ish to me. If you could rip it apart and mount it on a normal bay that would be pretty sweet

hmm... looks about as efficent as all of the other hardcano products...

why i say that is i have a hardcano5 and it does crap all. why bother when you can get more stylised ones that are bound to be a fraction of the cost ?

Because the average joe is too lazy/unco to build their own.
And plus, it is quite a bit cheaper than our current pcmods alternate.............please note the word current
