CM Storm Enforcer Case Review

The Disk Drive Bays

The CM Storm Enforcer has four 5.25” external bays, six 3.5” internal bays and two 2.5” internal bays. The 5.25” and 3.5” bays use tool-less installation mechanisms, whereas on the 2.5” bays you must use regular screws to install hard drives and SSD units.

The six internal 3.5” bays are divided into two hard drive cages. The top one, which has four bays, is removable, allowing you to install longer video cards. Hard drives are installed using tool-less mechanisms based on rulers, i.e. you have to install one ruler at each side of the drive and then slide the drive into the bay you want to use.
