The large side panel window shows the internals of the computer, and the rear exhaust fan glows blue. The Aguila also features an optional special mounting to display a hard disk drive with a transparent casing. Cusomization options include mounting holes for water cooling systems, power switches which can be moved between the 5.25" bays and optional BTX configuration.

The Aguila has several convenience features for drive and card mountings, including a removable cage for hard disk drives, tool-free mountings for 5.25" drives and PCI cards. The power and reset switches are mounted on the same removable rack as the two external 3.5" drive bays, movable between the front five 5.25" bays. Two 'silent' 120mm fans, on front and back, provide ventilation over HDDs. Mesh grille on the front of the case and a vent on the side panel positioned over the CPU fan provide additional ventilation. The case also has a transparent side window, LED light exhaust fan, and locks on the front and side panel for security.
