SilverStone SST-TJ04B-EW Evolution Chassis Review

The side window is a sweet addition and is easily removed should you get the itch to adorn your TJ04-E with some custom colored plexi or some nasty etching.

TJ04-E-Side TJ04-E-15


Internally, the TJ04-E is as distant as the moon. There is no similarities other than the fact that it holds stuff. First, there is room for eight internal 3.5 inch hard drives by way of a hard drive cage. The cage is constructed of high quality steel and lined with a sound / vibration dampening material. It sports the same handle we found in the Grandia GD08 making for an easy install / removal. To further cool your drives, the cage sits directly adjacent to side mounted 120mm fans (only one populated) and the hard drives are partially installed using thick heatsinks. When fully populated this cage weighs a ton and you will thank SilverStone for outfitting it with such a heavy duty handle. Oddly enough, the hard drives are installed upside down!? Additionally, SilverStone also provides you with some two custom SATA cables for improved HDD power management.

Their signature SofTouch Surface Treatment is simply amazing. Having gained popularity with their Colossus case, BitFenix has decided to bring all that style and pizzazz to the Mini ITX platform, and dubbed it the Colossus Mini-ITX.
