The Thermaltake WingRS 201 is a basic mid-tower PC case from Thermaltake's entry-level WingRS series. The case supports ATX and Micro ATX motherboards and differs in design with the WingRS 200 since it has a black steel chassis and a front mesh grill for better ventilation. Like the WingRS 200, it includes a 12cm exhaust fan at the rear with front and side ventilation openings as well as a CPU air guide to provide sufficient air flow to cool the case. The WingRS 201 can hold four 5.25" drives, five 3.5" drives, and offers convenient tool-free installation of all of the drives and PCI cards. It also provides front audio ports and two front USB ports and has a thumb screw for easily opening the side panel. The case has a suggested retail price of $60 and comes with a 3 year warranty.
