LianLi LanCool PC-K58W Case Review

LanCool's line of Dragon Lord computer cases offer two great advantages over many competitors. The first is the amount of customization they provide in choosing a stock model. Rather than simply providing one high end case and one low end case they provide options for several intermediate levels. The second advantage offered by LanCool is their tool-less designs. Many tool-less designs of the past have suffered from compatibility or usability problems. LanCool uses a fresh approach to alleviate the problems of the past while still providing the option to fall back on conventional installation. Benchmark Reviews recently reviewed the PC-K56W which offers snap-in hard drive assemblies. We now bring you the PC-K58W which extends the tool-less design, offers more space, more features, and more room to upgrade.

Perhaps you have used a case with tool-less hardware installation. My first experience was a PCI bar that held all PCI cards in place at once. The idea was simple, easy, and terribly flawed. All PCI cards are not created equal. The inserts often had subtle size variations that made it difficult to get the card into place, or sometimes to keep the card in place long enough to screw it down. The single PCI bar required wrangling all cards simultaneously which often proved impossible. I have similar experiences with other tool-less designs. One particularly frustrating mechanism was a spring-loaded hard drive clamp. Simply push a button and slide in the hard drive. I quickly found that some of my drives would either not lock firmly or could not be released.

Incompatibilty is a result of an inability to predict every possible design. As will be shown, the PC-K58W uses new designs to avoid these pitfalls and allows for conventional installation using screws in all their tool-less hardware.
