Corsair Carbide Series 330R Quiet Mid-Tower Chassis Review

With the side panel removed we find that the interior has a black paint job, keeping the chassis looking nice and uniform inside and out. There is a large cut-out on the back panel for easy installation of your CPU cooler and there are four more cut-outs to aid with cable management.

There are three 5.25″ drive bays with push-click mechanisms although the actual clips feel like they’re constructed from very cheap plastic. There is a large open area between the 5.25″ bays and the HDD trays, this gives great airflow space to the front fan that comes pre-installed and a lot of extra room for long graphics cards. At the bottom we have four HDD trays, all of which support both 3.5″ and 2.5″ drives. All internal cables are finished in black and this only helps keep the chassis interior looking clean and tidy.

Here we see the rear 120mm exhaust fan which is fitted with a 3pin motherboard connection, below that we have the re-usable expansion slot covers, each of which come fitted with quick release screws for easy access.

The top of the chassis features plenty of room for a radiator or fans should you require extra cooling performance.

Around the back we have a much better view of the cable management options, there a few cable tie loops on the chassis to help keep things tidy and the rear of the HDD bays is exposed and this should further aid with cable management and routing.

There is around 20mm of space back here, more than enough for a chassis of this size.

Much like the front and top panels, each of the side panels is also covered with sound dampening material that should help keep things super quiet.
