What makes a mid tower a mid tower?

[w0rmh0lez]

I'm just curious if my case is a mid tower or a full tower. I have a Silverstone Raven RV02. It only has 7 expansion slots but has the cooling capabilities of a full tower

You aren't the first to ask about the difference between a mid tower and a full tower, so I'll just direct you to this thread:

As far as the Silverstone Raven RV02, I checked several vendor sites, and they listed it as a full tower.

Newegg lists it as a Full Tower. I suspect the determining factors are the number of external drive bays and the actual physical height of the case.
