Hiper has improved on the small shortcomings of the unique Anubis case. The Osiris includes three fans, which can be connected directly to the mainboard or the power supply. The entire construction is incredibly solid and the focus on a clean, simple but effective functionality, which we are used to from the Anubis has remained.
The choice of a clean front panel instead of an elaborate door has not only reduced the overall price considerably, but should be considered an improvement as well. Every drive is secured with thumb screws, as is the power supply. All this quality makes you wonder why the Osiris still has break out covers for the expansion slots. This time around, Hiper has included three separate PCI bracket covers, to replace those you have broken out, but it would have been nice if Hiper simply pre-installed seven of these right off the bat - eliminating this issue entirely. This one downside is actually the only one as well. No matter how you look at the Osiris. It is available in black and silver and costs much less than the Anubis.
