EPIA N Review (remember this is NOT quite the same as the EPIA NL)
Note: No the EPIA NL is designed for customers who intend to utilise or modify their own enclosure. The EPIA N model is better suited if you require a pre-built case.

Configure a system using this case
Suitable for EPIA N motherboards - Universal 110-240V operation.
Constructed from anodised brushed aluminum and measuring just 302 x 57 x 179mm (WxHxD).
The Silverstone LC08 adds a slimline optical drive slot and 3.5in (or 2.5in) HDD drive bay to the popular LC07 case design. External 5A/60W (80W peak) Universal AC Adapter, internal DC power board.
Note: There are various ways of connecting an optical drive and 2.5in HDD to an EPIA N board. The EPIA N has 1x SATA, 1x 40pin IDE (the 'standard' kind) and 1x 44pin IDE. The LC08 has 2x Molex HDD connectors and 1x Molex Floppy connector. With an IDE 2.5in HDD we recommend one IDE cable, a Slimline CD to Desktop IDE Adapter and a 2.5in Hard Disk IDE Adapter. With a SATA 2.5in HDD you will need a SATA Data and Power Cable and Slimline CD to Desktop IDE Adapter.

*Note: If you do not intend to use an optical drive in your system then you may use an IDE 2.5in HDD instead of SATA. We have omitted these for clarity. The advantage is no SATA data/power cable is required, and IDE drives are generally available in smaller (i.e. cheaper) sizes. The disadvantage is cabling is less tidy and airflow is not quite as good.
