I've managed to fit 1mm copper SSD heatsink, but it leaves no room for the mounting holes, so the case can't be hung and the heatsink makes the case bent a little out. When the SSD is loaded, the heatsink gets really hot. What SSD heatsink model is supposed to be used with this case?

Hi,Sorry, there is no space for a heatsink of the SSD in the case.

Another big problem of the case is that the antenna holes are not in the base, but on the lid. The antenna cords cannot be easily detached and they are short and fragile. It makes it difficult to disassemble the case and keep it with the detached lid. Would be nice to see the holes on the other side in the next version of the case.

I would suggest not moving the holes, but make this side part of the base and the opposite side part of the lid.

How much room does it have for SSD heatsink?

Hello,The copper spacers fixing the bottom of motherboard are M2.5*7+6, so the height from the motherboard to the bottom of the case is 7mm. Theoretically, the thickness of SSD+Heatsink cannot exceed 7mm.

It is only 1.5mm between the SSD and the case bottom side. With 0.5mm thermal pads it gives only about 1mm room which is technically not enough to fit in anything. The only way to avoid SSD overheating is to significantly low down the rates. Hopefully it will be better designed in the next version of the case.

Why wasn't the fan designed to take advantage of the 5V fan header adjacent to the RTC Connector?

Thank you for your suggestion, but our current fan design is directly plugged into the GPIO
