SilverStone RM42-502 Review - Rackmount & Mid-Tower Server Case
Packaging & Contents »Introduction
I would like to thank SilverStone for supplying the review sample.
While SilverStone is well known for its consumer products, the company also manufactures products meant for workstation and enterprise environments. The SilverStone RM42-502 being reviewed is one such product. As such, it lacks a fancy, marketable name but represents a chassis that can hold dual-socket systems loaded with GPUs or compute units. On top of that, SilverStone has designed it to be rack-mountable with sled support or utilized upright on its own.
