SilverStone Raven RV05 Computer Case Review

APH Networks checked out the SilverStone Raven RV05 Computer Case A quote from the article:
In many cultures, ravens do not carry a whole lot of positive connotation. In western literature, this bird seems to always carry an overtone of bad omen. There is even an old Chinese saying that roughly translates to -- no doubt with a negative overtone -- "All ravens are black under the sky." Basically, it is suggesting there are no exceptions in this world; as long as something is in a bad category, it is bad. But why are we thinking that way? In the Bible, the prophet Elijah was fed by ravens when there was no food in the land. Even Jesus illustrated God's providence using ravens as recorded in the book of Luke. Clearly, we carry a lot of prejudice when it comes to appearance, even if we do not like to admit humans are usually pretty ostentatious. But today, with Halloween a whole week behind us now, I would like to make an assertions while all ravens are indeed literally black under the sky, there is still a positive element to it. Here at APH Networks, we have reviewed quite a number of cases from the SilverStone Raven line; extending back to 2011 with the Raven RV03, to just last year with the Raven RV04, both by my colleague Preston Yuen. In between, we even covered the RVS02 hard drive enclosure. Sitting next to me today on my desk is the latest from SilverStone's collection of non-traditional cases. The fifth generation Raven chassis sports the same ninety degree rotated motherboard design, but with a much cleaned up look, and -- get this -- a daring removal of all 5.25" drive bays to create something that is actually quite compact. It remains to be black, but is it the still the best? Considering I had to make the call and claim this chassis over my coworkers when SilverStone asked us to review it, I will let you make a guess. Hint: It is good.
