The middle portion of the Chenming Silver 301KE features an ATX I/O plate which is pre-punched for mouse
& keyboard, two serial ports, two USB ports and one parallel port. To the right of the ATX I/O plate is
one 80mm fan mount. The pre-punched grill is a honeycomb pattern, and the material that is left is thin
enough to adequately allow air to pass, however, it may be cut out if one feels it necessary. Next to
the PCI/AGP slots is a swing away compartment, similar to the TurboCase X-Sonic Mid-Tower Case which can
be used for storing mounting screws, motherboard stand-offs or mini cables as well as hiding the
mounting screws for the expansion cards.

Once the side panel is removed, we can see the interior. The 301KE can handle ATX (Up to 12" x 9.6") or
Micro ATX motherboards. The 301KE does not include a pull out motherboard tray to simplify the process
of installing system components, however the 301KE offers ample room and with the removable drive cage,
most consumers should have no issues with space. The main chassis edges have been bent over to ensure
that you will not cut your hand when working in the interior of the case. The upper portion of the
interior chassis can hold 4 x 5.25" devices such as CD-ROMs, DVD-ROMs, fan control devices, etc.
