The editors didn't like
Large
Only one SATA backplane provided
Top fan filter not accessible
The side panels could be a bit thicker
Lacks proper cable management
No hole for the CPU cooler installation
Space a little tight for cable routing/management when fully populated
Does not support Extended ATX motherboards
No ESATA port
Not a completely "tool-less" case
The PSU area may be too small for larger Power Supply Units
The price is on the high side of the pricing spectrum
Only one hot-swappable SATA hard drive bay area
Two of three filters not easily removed and/or cleaned
Cable management could use improvements
Airflow options are limited
Slight mismatch of anodized finish on external drive bay covers
No eSATA connector on external patch panel
The included fans dont light up
There wasnt a second GTX280 included
Quality like this doesnt come cheap
Would like to see more how-swap connectors included
Over-insulated
No E-ATX compatibility.
A tad expensive
A bit cramped for sidemounted SATA ports. Only one SATA hotswitch plate.
cable management features for a bottom mounted PSU, Sound dampening material on both side panels, Very quiet
Some quality control issues with the acrylic window observed with our sample, Hard drive cages too restrictive and block intake airflow to graphics cards
LetÂs break it down for those who have skipped straight to the conclusion, shall we?From an aesthetics perspective, the FT01 is a case that just about anyone will like the look of. Beauty is certainly in the eye of the beholder as case aesthetics are v...

Aluminium panels add a pleasing highlight to the steel chassis, Two 120mm fans supplied with the option of adding a third, Dual 2.5inch drives bays conveniently mounted on the graphics caddy, Graphics caddy assists airflow by separating the CPU from the G
Very little space around the CPU for a decent cooler, SFX power supply restricts your options, Building the PC is the usual small form factor fiddle, There is no cable management worthy of the name. You just find a place to shove the cables, The top case
You can think of the SilverStone FTZ01 as a member of the Fortress Series Z with a B suffix for Black or S for Silver. FTZ01 is described as a ‘premium slim form factor case with superior thermodynamics and construction' and while these claims are correct...
Abstract: Today were going to be looking at the FT01 chassis which is a return to a more traditional design implementation – simple yet elegant. This mid-tower chassis incorporates design cues from the immensely popular TJ07 chassis and is home to a number of ...
Abstract: Silverstones latest PC case is an impressive piece of engineering. The FT01s top, front and bottom are formed from a single U-shaped piece of aluminium. This makes the case feel incredibly sturdy, and it look great too. The rear of the case is riv...
Teniendo en cuenta que nuestra Fortress ha tenido que lidiar con un sistema poderoso (Intel QX9700, P45 de Gigabyte, Scythe Ninja Plus, ATI Radeon HD4870X2, un par de WD Raptor de 150GB, etc.) su comportamiento es cuanto menos brillante. La temperatura...
Abstract: Nous poursuivons nos tests de boitiers avec le Silverstone Fortress. Il rompt un peu la tradition en alliant du plastique à l’aluminium. Le Fortress est un boitier beaucoup plus sobre que le Raven mais il embarque toujours un système de refroidissement...
Pas totalement Visless, Pas totalement en aluminium, Câble Management perfectible, Prix, Bundle pauvre
Nous sommes donc bien face à un boitier Silverstone. Le design est sobre mais pourtant très tape à loeil, notamment grâce a cette façade en un seul morceau qui court sur le dessus et le dessous du boitier. Autre point qui ne trompe pas sur la provenan...
Matériaux de qualité, Rigidité, solidité, Nombreux raffinements, Excellent refroidissement, Système antipoussière, Capacité daccueil, Silencieux
Prix
Voilà de quoi se faire une bonne idée de ce boîtier. Lensemble est très réussi, les matériaux sont de grande qualité, le système de refroidissement est très efficace, et on peut rencontrer tous les raffinements que lon peut attendre dun boîtier hau...
In conclusione il Silverstone Fortress FT01 si è rivelato un buon case, dotato di un ottima ventilazione e di caratteristiche di notevole interesse. Il sistema di apertura delle paratie laterali risulta davvero molto comodo, e anche il sistema di aggan...
