There are three mounts for SSDs; you screw your SSD to the plate, and secure the plate with a thumbscrew. The old-fashioned way, I like that, I also prefer them a bit out of sight so I appreciate this solution.

You'll spot two tool-less drive trays that will support 2.5/3.5" drives ready to be inserted into the chassis. Installation of the HDDs is really easy. You can place them into one of the 3.5" drive trays by sliding them into the guides and then securing them with a thumbscrew.

Granted, it is a bit awkward that you'll be looking at the backside of the HDD. So the HDD PCB is visually apparent. Then again, the tempered glass is really dark, so it isn't that visually apparent / out there.

An included (removable) cable routing cover allows you to hide the cable clutter from both the left and right side of the case. Also included, Velcro straps and cable routing grommets for quick and easy cable routing. Again, there's not a lot of space though. Too much wiring and the tempered glass door is going to be hard to close so you really need to be clever about cable management.
