As with the right side of the
case, the left side of the case is pretty the same, or precisely at a very good level. The only elements
which left us a bit confused are the HDD and peripherals cage which does
not use tool-less system. On the top right corner there are two 5.25" slot paired
with a single 3.5" one.
The top of the case also features a room for a 120mm fan or an option to cover the mesh with the bulkhead provided. As you can see from the pictures, this small bulkhead has no screws but uses a retention system consisting of small magnets,
which is definitely a great idea!
In total, it is possible to install two 120mm fans on the front (or even a 240mm radiator), a 120mm
fan in the rear and another 120mm fan on the top. Despite the rather small size of the Silencio 352, we were able to mount a single tower heatsink without running into
any compatibility issues.
