In Win BUC 101 Case Review

The Top Panel

The In Win BUC 101 comes with several unique features on its top panel. It has a 3.5”/2.5”docking bay, with a rubber mat for protecting the storage device. The SATA connectors come protected with a plastic cover, and an “eject” button is available in order to make it easier to remove the storage device.

On the mid-section of the top panel, the reviewed case has two USB 3.0 ports, which come protected with a rubber lid. The USB 3.0 ports use an internal connector, so make sure you install a motherboard with an internal USB 3.0 header.

Finally, on the rear part of the top panel there is a 120 mm fan using the exact same configuration as the front fan: a vented plastic lid is in front of it, and the fan has an air filter. Unfortunately, the manufacturer doesn’t publish the specifications for this fan, which uses a standard three-pin fan power connector.
