Full Disclosure: SilverStone Technology provided the product sample used in this article.

SilverStone Technology is best known for their computer cases. Some of their older models, such as the Temjin SST-TJ07, are actual classics in the field. SilverStone isn't afraid to innovate, as their "rotated motherboard" cases like the Raven, Fortress FT-02, and Temjin TJ-11 show.

With the uptick in the popularity of small form factor (SFF) cases, SilverStone has introduced dramatic new products like the FT-03, FT-03 Mini, and SG08. All of these cases abandon conventional design tropes and implement innovative new interior layouts.

The SUGO SG09 follows this path. If you think its exterior appearance is a little unusual, wait until you see how it works on the inside.
