The editors didn't like

  • Top 5.25” drive bay could be very difficult to use with SATA optical drives due to restricted space caused by the I/O bays.
  • Price
  • Weight
  • Depth
  • Hard drive cage
  • Hard drive cage held in place with 8 screws
  • No hotswap drive option
  • Might have liked aluminum accent parts
  • Two additional USB connections at the front top of the case would have been nice to see since have to remove the cover each time you want to plug in another removable device would become tedious and well annoying
  • Would have been nice if they kept the case height the same as the Raven RV01 which would allow for easier installation of the triple radiator as it would add more clearance for those v
  • Hard drive cage seems lazy.
  • Less Plastic Could Be Used
  • Drive Cages Could Be Reoriented
  • Should have 8th Expansion Slot
  • Could use extra room behind 5.25" bays

  • Design, Finition, Architecture intéressante, Bonne ventilation, Silencieux et performant, Prix
  • Accès aux ports de la CM, Pas totalement Visless, Prises additionnelles insuffisantes, Câblage pas facile, Première baie 5.25 pouces inutilisable, Pas de régulation du 120 mm, Seulement 3 HDD, 1 SSD
  • Le premier Raven nous avait séduit de par son architecture et les changements quil apportait. Mais nous serons plus critique face à ce Raven 2 qui ne corrige pas vraiment les défauts du premier. Commençons par le point qui nous...

  • I prodotti SilverStone si distinguono sempre per la qualità e le soluzioni adottate e Raven RV02 non fa alcuna eccezione. A nostro avviso non è da definirsi un successore del modello RV01, ma semplicemente il secondo elemento della famiglia dei...

  • Sono evidenti le linee guida che Silverstone ha seguito passando da Raven 01 a Raven 02, questo modello è meno pretenzioso del precedente, meno innovativo, meno high tech, ma porta con sè il giusto quantitativo di soluzioni che lo distinguono da...

  • Abstract:  Se si eccettua la timida e fallimentare comparsa, nel corso del 2008, dello standard BTX sul mercato della componentistica PC, la disposizione dei componenti all'interno di un sistema desktop è pressoché immutata da anni e segue lo standard denominato ...

  • L´idea di posizionare la scheda madre con le uscite rivolte verso l´alto è non solo interessante in relazione alle prestazioni ottenute, ma anche in quanto a longevità delle ventole delle varie periferiche (si evita, ad esempio, che la...

  • mutiges und wertiges Design, sehr kratzfeste Lackierung, sehr gute Verarbeitung, äußerst passgenaue Seitenteile, rutschfester Stand, sehr sinnvoll plaziertes I/O Panel, sehr gutes Platzangebot, Festplatten entkoppelt verbaubar,...
  • zu grelle Front LEDs, inkonsequente Lüftersteuerung, 120mm Lüfter zu laut, kein eSATA Port
  • Das Silverstone SST-RV02B-W Raven 2 Gehäuse glänzt mit innovativen Ideen und mutigem Design. Das Face Liftung hat sich gelohnt, zumal eine Reihe von Verbesserungen eingeflossen sind, die u.a. auch der Usability zu Gute kommen. Das Rad hat Silver...

  • Tolles Konzept in nicht optimaler VerpackungEs besteht kein Zweifel, dass das SilverStone Raven wie auch Raven 2 ein recht geniales Konzept bieten. Im Raven 2 wirkt das Ganze sogar nochmals etwas schlüssiger. Der Trick das Netzteil von unten nach hinte...

  • Optische ÄnderungenDa das Raven 2 bereits mit einem extravaganten und sehr ansprechenden Design daher kommt, fällt es sichtlich schwer, an diesem Gehäuse noch nennenswerte Änderungen vorzunehmen. Das große Sichtfenster bietet allerdings zwei Möglichkeiten...

  • Abstract:  Das Raven 2 wurde erstmals auf der Computex in Taipeh vorgestellt. Die Funktionsweise ist identisch mit der seines Vorgängers, dem Raven RV01. Die Besonderheit: Silverstone hat die Hauptplatine um 90 Grad gedreht, sodass die Anschlüsse nun oben und ni...
