Manufacturer Description
The Zalman HD160 Home Theatre PC Enclosure will bring you the quiet PC environments and will let you place your PC at lounge. Now you will have fun not only in your room, but in your lounge with your high end home audio system with silence. The entire chassis consists of aluminum unlike other enclosures that solely use aluminum for the front panel. Multiple air inlets adjacent to all major heat-generating components facilitate optimized ventilation and cooling. The 5.25" and 3.5" exposed bays along with the four 3.5" internal bays provide plenty of expansion room -- four or more hard disks can be installed on anti-vibration mounts. The push-open door style front I/O panel houses two USB ports, 1394 port, MIC and headphone jacks. The VFD displays the PC's operation status while the remote control provides convenient access to various media.
With user-friendly components such as USB 2.0 ports, 1394, MIC, headphone and built-in flash memory reader supporting seventeen types of cards, remote control for enabling multimedia software operation and control, and convenient volume knob, the HD160 can be operated at minimum fan speed with Zalman's silent cooling solutions, consuming less power than regular systems.
Vibration can be prevented by attaching the vibration-preventing pads on the bottom part of the hard disk, and friction with the screws can be minimized by attaching the circular vibration-preventing pads on the top part of the hard disk. Power Supporter serves two purposes by preventing the breakaway of the power supplier when exposed to vibration or external impact, and by serving as the prevention for bending. Power must be attached after attaching the Power Guide, in order to provide the power supplier with fresh air.

Customer Reviews
Their coolers are better!
Poor instructions and difficult to build and set up. You have to go into command code to activate the remote. The hard drive cage and optical drive cage are a PITA! You need a long screw driver with a magnetic tip to install the mounting screws. The new version is greatly improved with better cages. If you want to use Vista and Zalman the new version of this case is the best that Zalman has to offer. The Upscale touch screen model does not work with Vista ATT. I'd recomend Silverstone over the Zalman cases even if the Silverstone is made out of steel and not aluminium as is the Zalman. After the install and getting the bugs worked out this unit is pretty good - getting to this point is the hard part.
