Following the recent trend among system case manufacturers, there is a CPU air-duct at the top vent opening:

The vent opening is rather wide, so you can adjust the air-duct position horizontally to adapt it perfectly to your particular mainboard model. There is no dust filter in the air-duct, which is not surprising considering the number of other vent openings. One filter just wouldn’t make any difference.

The interior of this system case looks rather modest:

Not much here for a case of that price category. A pleasant trifle, a 120mm mm exhaust fan is preinstalled on the rear panel.

There is only one cage for hard disk drives and it can accommodate a couple of devices at best.

It’s not good to have two drives so near one another in a cage that lacks air cooling (there are seats for two 60mm fans in the front panel, but it looks more like a scoff to me). The fact that the drives are fastened via vibration-suppressing spacers doesn’t help much. So, the TA-370 can accommodate normally only one hard drive in its cage. I really don’t know what the developers thought about, considering the class and price category of the case. The cage is removable to make it easy to install an optical drive.
