Closer Look at MGE Ninja

This model comes in three colors: black, violet and silver. We’ve got a black case for our tests. I think that the case got its name from the appearance of the bottom part of the front panel that reminds me of the masks of Subzero and Scorpion from the game and movie Mortal Combat.

There are four 5.25” bays and two 3.5” open bays on the front panel of the case. They are covered with black plastic faceplates. This entire block of bays is also covered with a door that has a slit for the optical drive in its top so that you didn’t have to open the door to change the disc. It is best to install devices of black color into this Ninja. To the right of the 3.5” bay, there is a Reset button and a HDD activity indicator. It’s not quite clear what’s the point of this indicator because it is not visible when the door is closed.

But I don’t understand why they put them so wide apart of each other. It doesn’t matter for the USB connectors, but the wires of the attached headphones and microphone won’t look very aesthetically.

Four cables go into the case from these connectors. They end in separate connectors:
