The bottom left side portion of the Lascala SST-LC01 HTPC Case includes an embedded oversized black
Power bottom and activity LEDs for HD and Power. Surprisingly, the case does not include a Reset button
even though there is enough room to accommodate the feature. Consumers who wish to include this function
will have to manually add the feature themselves. The right side portion of the Lascala SST-LC01 HTPC Case
includes the SilverStone logo which has been embossed in attractive white lettering.

One of the great features of the SilverStone Lascala SST-LC01 HTPC Case is the inclusion of dual
quick release clips which open up two distinct compartments on the front bezel. The top compartment
allows access to two external 5.25" drive bays. The lower compartment contains two external 3.5" drive
bays along with front USB, Audio and Firewire ports. Small retractable gears located in the left and
right sides of the case control the operation of compartment doors.

The front USB, Audio and Firewire ports simplify the process of connecting any peripheral devices and
are connected by a series of extender cables located inside the case. The connections to the front ports
are relatively simple and SilverStone includes a reference sheet of the pin-out configuration. The
bottom portion of the SilverStone Lascala SST-LC01 HTPC Case has been fitted with four metal flat feet
which keep the case stationary when positioned on a flat surface. The feet resemble the same type of
setup used on Hi-Fi stereo equipment. All feet are coloured black and accented with silver highlights.
