The Fractal Design Node 304 is a compact mini ITX computer case designed for users who want powerful performance in a small footprint. It features a modular interior that allows for flexible configuration, making it ideal for both casual users and enthusiasts looking to build a custom system. The case supports up to six hard drives, including both 3.5" HDDs and 2.5" SSDs, and can accommodate extended-length graphics cards when necessary. This makes it a versatile option for those who need extra storage or high-end graphics capabilities without sacrificing space.
The Node 304 includes three Silent Series R2 hydraulic bearing fans, which provide efficient cooling while minimizing noise. These fans are part of a fan controller that allows users to manage airflow and noise levels according to their needs. The case also features filtered air intakes to keep internal components dust-free, which helps maintain performance and longevity. The inclusion of USB 3.0 ports ensures fast data transfer speeds, making it convenient for connecting external storage devices or peripherals.
The design of the Node 304 is compact yet well-thought-out, with a focus on usability and accessibility. Its black finish and cube-like shape make it visually appealing while fitting easily into small spaces. The modular mounting system allows users to customize the internal layout based on their components, which is especially useful for those building systems with unique configurations. The case also supports ATX power supplies and tower CPU coolers up to 165mm tall, as well as single-fan water cooling systems, making it suitable for a wide range of builds.
Setup is straightforward, with all necessary components included for basic operation. Users will need to install the motherboard, power supply, and other components according to their build requirements. The Node 304 is best suited for users who prioritize cooling efficiency and storage flexibility in a small form factor. However, its compact size may limit the number of expansion options compared to larger cases, so it's important to plan the build accordingly.
