THE AI-06W INTERIOR

Neither of the two side panels comes with noise isolating material in the normal version (the Ai-06WS however does).

The interior is also white and looks quite a bit spacious, for a midi tower.

All of the 5.25" drive bays are secured via normal thumbscrews while one of them has a preinstalled 5.25" to 3.5" tray.

You can install up to seven 3.5”/2.5" drives inside the 3 separate drive cages. Two out of three drive cages (6 trays) are removable but in order to remove them you need to remove a total of 6 thumbscrews placed both at the front and rear.

Removing the two drive cages (leaving room for only two 3.5" drives) is only necessary for people who intent on using more than a single mGPU card over 280mm in length or a 240mm radiator where the cages used to be.

By removing the two drive trays you also gain access to the front 140mm fan and the empty fan space.

The aluminum 2.5/3.5" drive trays may not look much but they are very sturdy.

Aside the very large CPU cutout the mainboard tray comes with most standoffs preinstalled and has a total of 5 grommets for cable management.

Much like its predecessor the AI-06W has two built-in fan headers with a total of 8 fan spots.

Routing cables behind the mainboard tray shouldn’t be hard but there isn’t much space available.

There’s no protective grille in front of the rear 120mm exhaust fan so be extra cautious when placing cables around it.

All of the expansion slots are held in place with regular thumbscrews.

The PSU space features 4 small round rubber feet and a Velcro strap for increased stability. You can also mount two more 140/120mm fans but to do that you will once again need to remove the hard plastic used to mount the bottom drive cage.

There’s plenty of room at the top for a 240/280mm radiator or two 120/140mm fans.
