nMedia HTPC 6000B Chassis Review

nMedia has really made a name for themselves in a short amount of time by offering solid built HTPC chassis at an affordable rate. This one is much more traditional than their other wooden case, but probably will appeal to a more conservative crowd.

 

Benchmark Reviews

nMediaPC is a company that deals primarily in home theater related products, and it shows. Their HTPC 6000B case has both form and function. It looks good, and has many useful features inside of it. I think there is room for improvement, though. The hard drive cage is a great idea, but I think it could have been a little better executed and thought out. Simple oversights such as the Molex connectors on the fans, and obnoxious break-away PCI covers also take away from the case. However, this is one of the very few cases that I have seen that can take a full ATX motherboard, hold 6 hard drives and an Optical Drive, all while staying at the $100 price point. It is extremely good looking to boot.
