New from AreoCool is the FP-01, which is a 55-in-1 Multifunction Panel w/ Card Reader from Aerocool! This Multifunction Panel will fit in any 5.25" bay and has a car stereo style flip-out LCD Screen that looks killer. The Aerocool FP-01 is a fan controller, card reader and much more. Read on to find out what the FP-01 is like as we try it out in a PC with some SDHC (Secure Digital High Capacity) memory cards.
Today we look at AreoCool’s new 5.25 drive bay device, the FP-01. This unique little device that has just about everything one would want on the front of their case crammed into one nice package that takes up the same space as a optical drive.
The fan cables left something to be desired, with them being stranded wires, they just go every witch way. If they were flat cable or even had some heat shrink tubing to help keep things tidy would help tons on looks.

It should be which not witch.
Nice catch, but you missed the other witch on page 5... lol Smacks Bubba for not his witch usage!
The panel itself is pretty sturdy; you're not going to transport this open (I'd hope) so the likelihood that it gets ripped off in transit is nil. The outer case looks and sounds flimsy sliding around on my desk, its mostly hollow. Once installed into a case drive cage it's just fine.

If you have ripped off the front of a CD drive then you might have something to worry about, but if you move with it closed then your fine. Unless you have ripped the font of a CD drive off, but if you have done that then you need to step away from the PC
