Two aluminum front panel doors protect the components on the front of this case. Because of its low profile, the CM Media 260 can only accommodate a small amount of hardware. A single 5.25" drive is situated somewhat atypically on the left side of the interior and there is room for three 3.5" drives too. One of the 3.5" bays is accessible from the case exterior, so that it can accommodate a floppy drive or fan controller.
