Unlike traditional case design, the PSU placement on the YY-0221B is located at the bottom of the chassis to accommodate the split design. I was pleased to see that PSU mount is capable of accommodating dual fan PSU models without issues and can be removed and re-secured accordingly. The YY-0221B is also capable of housing an optional Mini-Redundant 250W Power Supply. There are a total of 7 PCI slots available at the rear to accommodate any combination of PCI based cards.

By default, no I/O ATX plate is installed; this is done to allow users to install their own plate which is included with their motherboard. A standard I/O ATX plate is included with the YY-0221B. A 92mm stamped blowhole is located on the upper portion of the left side panel to aid in the removal of warm air generated by a CPU.

One of the standout features of the YY-0221B is how the chassis has been divided into two separate chambers. Removing the side panel reveals the right hand drive chamber, which is responsible for housing all the 5.25" and 3.5" bays along with a power supply. A total of six 5.25" devices can be installed into the drive rack located at the front of the case. Two external 3.5" drive bays are located atop the drive rack.
