Alphacool Repack Single Bay Reservoir 15039
This acrylic reservoir fits a standard 5.25 drive bay and provides G1/4 threads for loop connections. It is built for custom liquid-cooling enthusiasts who want a compact front-mounted reservoir with a visible fill-level indicator.
Upgrade from basic tube reservoirs
The bay-mount design replaces loose reservoirs that occupy case floor space or require custom brackets. The jump is worth it when you have a free 5.25 bay and want a rigid, front-accessible unit that can be pulled forward for filling without removing panels.
Tool-less bay installation
The reservoir secures like an optical drive using case screws, so no specialised tools are needed. Common issues include cross-threading the G1/4 ports if fittings are forced, and forgetting to reseat the 3/8 fill-port plug after topping up, which can cause leaks.

Questions about this item
Does the Alphacool Repack Single Bay Reservoir Rev.2 fit a standard 5.25 drive bay?
Yes, it is designed for installation in a vacant 5.25 drive bay at the front of your enclosure.
How is the reservoir mounted and what step is often missed?
It mounts like an optical drive using the bay screws; the step often missed is pulling the reservoir forward to access the front 3/8 fill port before securing it fully.
What maintenance does the reservoir need over time?
The 3/8 fill port uses a black nickel-plated screw plug that must be removed for coolant top-ups; the extra-strong Plexi body resists cracking during repeated opening.
