Cooler Master Storm Enforcer Case Review - PAGE 3

The Enforcer comes with a lot of accessories including two metal brackets that convert a 5.25" drive bay to a 3.5" drive bay, and a plastic holder that will let a single 3.5" drive bay hold two 2.5" drives. There are also several zip ties, screws, a speaker, and tool-free brackets to hold 3.5" hard drives.

Removing the side panel reveals a sleek black interior. The optical drive bays are tool-free with a built-in locking mechanism. There are two main hard drive cages: one cage holds four drives and is removable, while the other holds three drives and is built into the case. There is also a small drive cage at the bottom that holds two 2.5" drives.

The Enforcer supports a bottom mounted PSU, which seems to be a new trend among case manufacturers. What's interesting about this mounting system is you can either mount the PSU with the fan side up to draw air from inside the case, or with the fan side down to draw air from the outside instead.

As mentioned earlier, there are three hard drive cages in the Enforcer. To the right of the power supply is a small cage that will hold two 2.5" hard drives, then there is another small cage that will hold two 3.5" hard drives. The largest cage holds four 3.5" hard drives and is removable by taking out four screws. Removing this larger cage increases the maximum room inside the case for the video card from 270 mm to 390 mm.

Installing the motherboard and cables were fairly easy. I was able to route a few cables behind the motherboard and stuff the excess cables into an empty hard drive cage where they are out of sight of the side panel window.
