Speaking of getting inside...I had noted in my Logisys Armor review that the left door was extremely hard to open and close. The Phantom is not a complete improvement over this, but definitely a big one-- the case is much easier to get inside. Kudos to Logisys for fixing this!

Inside of the case is shown here. It looks pretty clean and free of unusual obstacles, and contains only a few wires-- the standard USB/audio hookup apparatus, speaker, and a hookup for the front LEDs.

The bottom hard drive cage is tool-less and not removable; oh well. It contains space for 4 3.5" hard drives, and to screw them in, you must also remove the right door. This is similar to many other cases that we've seen.

In front of the hard drive cage is a spot for a 120mm intake fan. The stamped grill does not look very restrictive at all, but of course, I am opposed to all stamped grills on the front panel where they are not needed (you can't stick your finger in there anyway!). However, just about every case has them, so it's a moot point. The advantage to this is that it allows you to fit an 80mm fan in, if you don't have a 120mm sitting around (I know I have about 25 80mm fans, and maybe 5 120MM fans).

The back of the case also has a 120mm clear fan installed. Not a tool-less system like the Thermaltake Tsunami, but also doesn't cost as much as one either

The PCI/AGP system isn't tool-less either...

The motherboard tray in this case is non removable. However, a good thing we can see in this photo is that there isn't a huge bar hindering us from installing a larger PSU, like we saw in the Tsunami case.
Let's throw a system in this one...
