THE DARK BASE PRO 900 REV.2 INTERIOR

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are two differences between the first Dark Base Pro 900 and the Rev.2 model once you remove the tempered glass panel the aluminum PSU shroud and the lack of any drive cages.

 

 


The PSU shroud extends from the front and all the way to the rear of the tower (thus effectively keeping all cables out of sight) and has 5 plastic covers on it.

 

 


By removing these covers you can add two 120mm fans over the PSU area and you can also mount thicker radiators at the front.

 

 

One of the things we liked about the Dark Base Pro 900 was its support for 5.25" drives and the Rev.2 model keeps that feature.

 

 

Right beneath the two 5.25" drive bays we find 5 drive cage mounting areas and the two high-speed SilentWings 3 fans.

 

 

The mainboard tray has three large rubber grommets and a very large hole underneath the CPU area for swapping of backplates.

 

 

All 8 PCI expansion slots are held in place with regular thumbscrews.

 

 

Once again the right side panel doesn't only feature a thick insulating mat but you can also equip it with two 120mm fans (you will need to remove the pads mounted in their place however).

 

 


On the other side we see the 5 single drive cage mounting areas, pre-mounted dual drive cage, 2-speed fan hub, 2.5" drive tray and the PSU area.

 

 

Both drive cages are made out of aluminum and are very sturdy.
