X500 Evo - White -

Update on the X500 Evo cases.

White X500 Evos.

Inside the box:

An A4 instructions sheet, the assembled case with a 16x PCI Express flexible riser card, the X500 Evo key ring, some fixing clips.

I've installed the 2x50mm plus one 40mm rear and one 40mm side silent fans, they can be removed easily, flipped over to change the airflow etc...

The black silicone mounts for the fans can also be removed if required.

Also installed a white 3.5" USB card reader and slim Samsung DVD-RW with white bezel and slim SATA cable, both fixed to two custom made brackets.

The entire case can be completely disassembled, down to every component to adjust/modify anything you want.

If, for example, you require to adjust how tight the sides are all is needed is to relax/screw the bolts, if you want to replace the LEDs or the power switch (this is hidden under the right hand side of the cover) you can do that by removing the low to medium strength hot glue I've used etc...

The mechanical keyboard is fixed with two custom supports, these are also vertically adjustable with four screws underneath.

There are 6 mounting holes for mini-itx/flex atx motherboards and 2 extra mounting holes for half mini-itx boards (FPGAArcade Replay for example), these are also vertically adjustable.

Initially, due to the size of the mechanical keyboard I only envisaged the use of one SSD/HDD (don't use HDD...use SSDs!) but I managed to find the space for a second drive under the keyboard. It might be crowded for two SSDs and cables but at least you can decide where to position one of them.

Like the X500 Plus the Evo also has one expansion slot for low profile cards, custom made low profile bracket and L shaped fixing clamp and clip.

The keyboard has a four pin internal USB header. Make sure the keyboard is connected the right way, usually red is to pin number 1.

The fixing screws are black, you can change them if you want or spray paint them in white.

@The Daddy

Seriously, I don't understand why ACube keep selling their AmigaOne 500 in that cheap ugly case, instead of offering you a deal.

@Trixie

Maybe they're too busy with other things...

@TheDaddy

it's an extreme sexy case... I really love it.. both the black and white looks damn good.


I was wondering if you had one for classics.

well I would really like a an Amiga500 with space for ACA500 or Zeus68k.

Any plans for such project ;)

Regards
René

@rwo

Thanks.

Not specifically for the classic machines but I know that someone is going to try and adapt the X500 Plus and Evo to accept an A1200 motherboard.
