Features:A good home for your hardware: Based on ATX form factor motherboard specifications providing a full 8x13” of surface area. Resting on its anti-static mat and its AGP/PCI cards securely locked in place with thumbscrews, the motherboard is safe yet available for hands-on work.Top shelf, load it up: The upper shelf is for stacking the drives and power supply. Plenty of real estate here to hold optical, hard disk and floppy drives. The top shelf protects the motherboard below from any possible impact from above. Included are non-slip pads to keep things in place, and the bench can hold over 150 lbs!Hard Drive Storage/Cooling Rail System: Two standard 3.5" hard drives can be easily inserted, protected and cooled via rails suspended under the top shelf. The far end of the HDD Rails open to catch air from the 120mm cooling fan assembly. Slide the HDD's in/out on smooth non-conductive acrylic rails.No loose AGP/PCI add-in cards!The AGP/PCI support brace solves the problem of loose motherboard add-in cards which can come lose and damage circuitry. It offers universal support for all add-in cards - blocking no cables or connections, and has some lateral flexibility to make adding/removing cards easy. Nylon thumb screws twist into the top of the brace and are positioned at ATX form factor spec locations so the AGP card and six PCI cards can be locked in place. The support brace can also be removed, flipped over and turned to support BTX form factor.Power the PC On/Off and monitor HDD activity: Plugging directly onto the motherboard, The ATX Control Kit takes the place of the computer case power and reset switches, power and hard disk drive activity lights, and system warning speaker so that PC hardware can operate totally independent of a standard computer case.Non-conductive materials: The Tech Station is made of non-electrically conductive, scratch-resistant, high grade polymers. Metal screws and brackets are not exposed in sensitive areas, and the motherboard rests on a protective 1/8" of anti-static foam! The test bench sits on non-slip thermoplastic rubber feet.Keep things cool: A 120mm 12v DC fan positioned on the left side so air is forced over heat sensitive components, and Hard Disk Drive(s) mounted under the top shelf.Lots of room to work: The height between shelves is 7” offering adequate room for hands to reach in and change components on the motherboard without having to remove the motherboard completely from the test bench.Reviews:
