Thermaltake is a brand that specializes in
producing computer components of Taiwan, and one of the
outstanding products of this company is desktop case.
We had on hand a case of the Level 10
(VO3000 series) Thermaltake's latest version, milky white Snow
version. Here is some brief information about this
product. The full name of the case is Level 10 GTS,
Snow Edition, belong
to VO3000 series of Thermaltake. Product is milky
white, its main details are made of metal (aluminum,
steel) and plastic, making it look solid and strong. Level
10GTS is a Mid Tower standard case. It can
mount ATX and micro
ATX standard motherboard. From outside, we can easily see it is
equipped with various plug in slots, for example, on the front there are 4 hard
drive slots (including 3.5” and 2.5” types), 4 DVD slots, a soft drive slot,
along with 4 USB ports to have source from motherboard (2USB 3.0 and 2 2.0
standards). At the back and two sides, it is simple, not fussy.
About layout, Level 10 GTS will put PSU
source at the bottom, this will help hot air escape from the PSU, the fan
behind the case will suck the hot air out, increasing the cooling capacity
inside. Products are designed with 5 places to mount cooling fans, which are
located all over the space in the case. They include: the front (200mm fan - available),
the back (120mm fan - available), above (200mm or 120mm fan - not available),
the left (200mm fan - not available), bottom (120mm fan - not available). In
addition, the case has is enough space inside to mount liquid cooling device

Thermaltake helped users easily add optical
drive and hard drive on Level 10 GTS case by simplify the installation tray.
When installing an optical drive, we just need to draw the dust barrier tray
and put the drive on it. The same with hard drive: press the button on the
front case and pull the plastic tray out. These drives are fixed to the case
with the brace, and there is no need to use screws. Manufacturers also equipped
a lock to lock the hard drive tray, to eliminate the possibility of accidentally
pulling out when the computer is running.
These
drives are fixed to the case with the brace, and there is no need to use
screws.
Another point to note is that the hard
drive slot is designed to install both 2.5” and 3.5” without switch tray, to drive
2.5” we just need 4 screw holes on tray. In addition, all 4 hard drive slots
above are installed Sata port on the case, and they are connected to a cable to
plug directly in the motherboard, remove inside Sata wire. However, the case
does not support attaching old IDE hard drives.
All
4 hard drive slots above are installed Sata port on the case.
