Today we look at Antec's Titan 550 server case - Antec's offering for high powered dual processor Xeon or Opteron based servers. Antec is generally known for its offerings in the performance desktop/gaming areas rather than their server offerings. We'll see if their success in high-end ATX cases can translate over to a successful server box.
The four external 5.4" drive bays allow mounting up to four optical drives, removable trays or other interesting combinations such as four SATA trays in three bays and one optical drive. The deep case will help with air circulation, and allows for mounting one 120mm and two 92mm fans.
