NZXT Lexa Case Review

     Moving to the inside front reveals the tool-less drive bay design.  NZXT has thoughtfully provided cable management for the front and side panel cable runs as well.  The Lexa can handle 11 drives total; 4 external 5.25", 2 external 3.5" and 5 internal 3.5" bays cooled by the front 120 mm fan.

     A closer look at the inside back shows the 120 mm Blue LED fan and the tool-less clip for the card slots.  The lock is opened by pulling the black lever between the fan and the slots out and up.

    

     The case includes enough tool-less rails for every drive location and all of the screws required for any possible application.  Its a refreshing change to have wire management and even cable ties included with a case.

     NZXT has even included a LAN case strap with the LEXA for easy transportation.  No risking the paint job to tote this baby around!
