For computer designers, creating a chassis capable of surviving harsh environments is a tough task, especially if dust is a major problem.  Most resort to fanless configuration as this eliminates the possibility of dust buildup introduced by active airflow into the chassis, which is the main cause of system overheating over time.  But limited heat dissipation capacity afforded by fanless designs confines systems to lower powered CPUs and Mini-ITX boards with less features.



To overcome this limitation, SilverStone’s R&D team once again challenged and overturned convention by coming up with an answer in the Mammoth MM01 chassis.  Instead of completely sealing off airflow to prevent dust, the MM01 has a partially-sealed design with active filtering.  To prevent dust from entering the chassis, a HEPA filter is used to cover the air intake area, making MM01 the first retail computer chassis to incorporate this internationally recognized filtering technology.  Used frequently by clean room in factories, operating…
