I bought it to build a rack mount computer for my server room. It is a little heavier then i thought but durable with a matte finish. I wished the seller would have listed a better photo of the product but i have a camera and took liberty for anybody curious of the product. Review: Great, cheap 1U case, reversible handles - I really like these cases, especially for the price. It's nice and shallow, so it works with smaller racks, but really only fits mini ITX or mATX boards. It does best with Atom processors, since it's not tall enough to house a full-sized heat sink and fan assembly, but a low-profile 1U HSF would probably work fine. I used this with Intel D2500CCE boards for several pfSense routers. Pro tip: You can remove the rack "handles" and turn them around, so the motherboard backplate and I/O ports are on the front of your rack. This works nicely if you're turning it into a router or server and want easy access to the ports. I highly recommend a nice FSP Flex ATX power supply like this one: http://www.desertcart.com/dp/B0015PSYHA/ Also, it has a full-length case blank for adding an expansion card. Cons: Doesn't come with any fans; I added 2 Sunon KDE1204PKVX 40x40x20mm fans here: http://www.desertcart.com/dp/B006ODM76C/ ($5 from Cooler Guys, though) It also doesn't come with any I/O shields, and there is no option to order them. 1U shields are not standard, and are hard to come by. I shoehorned an I/O shield from PLinkUSA/RackBuy onto it and it works well enough, but at $10 each it's a bit silly. Overall, you can't beat this case for the money, and I'm quite happy with it, despite the I/O shield issue. ## Features - Case Type: 1U Rack mount - M/B Type: Mini-ITX; 6.7 x 6.7 inch - Internal: 2x 2.5" - Expansion Slots: 1 - Cooling System: 3x 40mm Fans (optional) - Front I/O Panel: 2x USB 2.0 Ports ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0053YKPLM | | Best Sellers Rank | #3,433 in Computer Cases | | Customer Reviews | 4.2 4.2 out of 5 stars (44) | | Date First Available | July 28, 2017 | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 8 pounds | | Item model number | D-118V2-ITX-DT | | Manufacturer | Butch and Harold | | National Stock Number | 0 | | Product Dimensions | 11 x 19 x 1.75 inches | ## Images ![1U Compact Server/Desktop mini-ITX Chassis (D-118V2-ITX-DT), Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/21kJoQ1ewIL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I wished the seller would have listed a better photo of the product but i have a camera ... *by N***. on September 9, 2016* Really impressed by this product.

Be aware it does not include any fans, at all. And you have to disassemble the entire front to add them. Total pain. It also doesn't include the PCIE riser you'll to actually use the card slot, but at least its easy to add. Other comments: * The lid does not fit tight unless you add two side screws at the top front (included). But adding those negates the thumb screws at the back. I guess they were just for looks. * The LED is ridiculously bright blue. You could use it as a flashlight LED. So glad this will be in a closet. * The front buttons are recessed. That's nice. * The case overall looks pretty sweet. ## Frequently Bought Together - iStarUSA 1U Compact Server/Desktop mini-ITX Chassis (D-118V2-ITX-DT), Black - Noctua NF-A4x20 PWM Ventilateur Silencieux de qualitΓ© supΓ©rieure 40 mm - Noctua NF-A8 PWM, 4-Pin Premium Quiet Fan (80mm, Brown) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.at/products/14470248-1u-compact-server-desktop-mini-itx-chassis-d-118v2-itx](https://www.desertcart.at/products/14470248-1u-compact-server-desktop-mini-itx-chassis-d-118v2-itx) --- *Product available on Desertcart Austria* *Store origin: AT* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
