Inside the Eureka

Thermaltake Eureka

With the side panel removed we get the chance to see if Thermaltake has put the massive interior space to good use. With its capability to hold extended ATX motherboards (12”x13”) on the removable motherboard tray and the extensive PSU area up top, we start to see the server function of this chassis come to the fore.

Up front the Eureka has space for five 3.5” HDD’s mounted in slide-out trays. These were a little tough to get out on the first few occasions, but they did ease up a little over time.

The front wiring for the Eureka pops through under the lowest 3.5” HDD tray, with the clearly-marked cables proving very easy to fit.

The design of the 3.5” HDD trays means that the wiring for the HDD’s actually goes behind the caddy, leading to a nice and tidy interior when built.

One last thing worth mentioning is the rail storage for the 5.25" devices, cleverly concealed within the front bay covers.
