Hard Drive
Storage/Cooling Rail System: Slide
the HDD's in/out on smooth non-conductive acrylic rails. Two
standard 3.5" hard drives can be easily
inserted, protected and cooled by rails suspended under the top shelf. One end
of the HDD Rails open to catch air from the 120mm cooling fans, a nylon stopper
keeps the drive from making contact with the fan. SSD
Drive Rails are also available.
No loose
Add-in cards! The Add-In Card
support brace solves the problem of loose motherboard add-in cards, loose cards
can damage circuitry. The brace
offers universal support for all add-in cards - blocking no cables or
connections, and has some lateral flexibility to make adding/removing cards
easy. Nylon thumb screws twist into the top of the brace and are
positioned at ATX form factor spec locations so seven add-in cards can be locked
in place.
Top shelf, load it up:
The upper shelf is for
stacking the drives and power supply. Includes a neoprene mat to
make the entire shelf a non-slip and non-conductive work surface!
There is plenty of real estate here to hold optical, extra
hard disks and floppy drives, and the top shelf protects the motherboard
below from any possible impact from above.
Power the
PC On/Off and monitor HDD activity: Plugging
directly onto the motherboard, The ATX Control Kit takes the place
of the computer case power and reset switches, power and hard disk drive
activity lights, and system warning speaker so that PC hardware can operate
totally independent of a standard computer case.
Non-conductive
materials: The
Tech Station is made of non-electrically conductive, scratch-resistant,
high grade polymers and has tested ESD compliant both in-house and at AMD's labs in Austin TX.
Metal screws and brackets are not exposed in
sensitive areas, the motherboard rests on protective rubber standoffs,
the upper shelf has a non-slip neoprene work mat, and the test bench sits on
non-slip thermoplastic rubber feet. No
worries of frying your hardware like with a metal bench.
Keep
things cool:
Dual 120mm
12v DC fans positioned on the left side forcing air over heat sensitive
motherboard components and Hard Disk Drive(s)
mounted
under the top shelf.
Lots of
room to work: The
height between shelves is 7” offering adequate room for hands to reach
in and change components on the motherboard without having to remove the
motherboard completely from the test bench.
