Fractal Design Arc Midi R2 review - Product Showcase

Cool, let's start off with the review. As always we begin with packaging. It's a simple yet informative thing to show as when you purchase a chassis, honestly you do not want any defects and scratches on it. The ARC MIDI R2 is packaged in cardboard. Dammit, who's gonna do carbon fiber packaging as a first ;)

Once you take the unit out of the cardboard box you'll notice two layers of foam protecting the unit, which on its end is covered in a plastic bag. Packaging was done decently; risk on damage is fairly minimal. But, and I do speak out of experience, you never know with Fedex, UPS, DHL, TNT. They once delivered a package to me after they had driven over it with a forklift. 

Included in the bundle is the standard gear like screws, standoffs and zip-ties, most nice and black by the way, we like that.

Once unpacked, we see a little better what the chassis is all about. The chassis is made out of a steel structure with black faceplate/bezel. There's room for two 5.25" devices. The chassis has ATX, Micro ATX and Mini ITX motherboard compatibility and has chassis dimensions of  (WxHxD): 230 x 460 x 515mm.
