There will always be manufacturers releasing innovative products. This time it's ASUS, with the Vento TA-F case. The special thing about this case is that it is completely foldable. ASUS claims that the case can easily be transported and assembled. Tools are not required to set the case up. Because a folded case takes up a lot less space, it will be a lot cheaper to transport. According to ASUS, this advantage is able to decrease the price by over 30%.
The Vento TA-F will be available in two color settings, the black TA-F11 and the silver TA-F12. When the cases are assembled, they have a size of 190 x 426 x 469 mm.
The front panel has two USB ports and the drive bays are tucked away behind a sliding panel, which is stylish and protects the drives at the same time. One of the 5.25" bays can be converted to a 3.5" one, which provides the option of adding a floppydrive or cardreader to the case. Both the optical drives and hard disks can be installed toollessly.
The TA-F has two 120 mm fans for both intake and outtake. Optionally, an additional 80 mm fan can be put into the sidepanel as well.
