DARKROCK Classico Max Storage Master E-ATX PC Case 13 Drives 7x120mm Fan Black

Storage capacity and drive layout

This E-ATX mid-tower chassis accommodates up to 13 drives, combining 10 bays for 3.5-inch hard disks with 3 bays for 2.5-inch solid-state drives. The dense layout targets builders who need a single enclosure for large media libraries, backup archives or multi-disk arrays. Removing the drive cages is required to fit an Extended ATX motherboard, so buyers planning the largest boards must sacrifice some drive slots. The case does not serve users who want hot-swap bays or tool-less trays beyond the standard mounting points.

Motherboard clearance and GPU limits

Micro-ATX, ATX and Extended ATX boards are supported, with a maximum graphics-card length of 400 mm and a CPU-cooler height limit of 180 mm. Power supplies up to 200 mm deep fit behind the drive cages. The three vertical expansion slots allow a graphics card to be mounted upright, aligning it with front and rear airflow paths. Builders needing more than seven expansion slots or a second full-length card will find the layout restrictive.

Cooling options and airflow

Seven pre-installed 120 mm fans and mesh panels provide a baseline of air movement through the chassis. A 360 mm radiator can be mounted in the roof for liquid-cooling the processor, while the vertical GPU orientation creates parallel ducts for intake and exhaust. The design favours high-static-pressure fans to push air through the dense drive stacks. Users seeking silent operation with minimal fan speed or a fanless build will not meet their acoustic targets here.
