The Zalman S3 Midi Tower in black combines a hairline-finish metal front panel with dual intake openings and a full acrylic side panel to provide a balance of airflow and component visibility. The case supports Mini-ITX, Micro ATX and ATX motherboards and accepts both 2.5" and 3.5" drives, offering a compact yet versatile enclosure for typical desktop builds.
