Drive density and interface
The iStarUSA BPN-DE340HD-BLUE converts three 5.25-inch bays into four hot-swap 3.5-inch drive slots. It accepts SAS I/II/III and SATA I/II/III drives at up to 12Gb/s. The aluminium frame and key lock suit server builds that need physical security and tool-less drive changes.
Sustained thermal behaviour
An integrative aluminium chassis acts as a large heat sink for all four drives during continuous operation. A single 80mm fan pulls air across the trays while the removable cover simplifies cleaning without breaking the airflow path. This layout keeps temperatures stable during long RAID rebuilds or backup windows.
Build and daily mounting
The front bezel, handle and main chassis are all aluminium with a blue bezel and black body. Blue and purple LEDs show power and access status at a glance. The key lock secures the trays, and the unit fits the standard three-bay footprint measured at 4.92 by 5.71 by 7.79 inches.

Questions about this item
How loud and hot does the 80mm fan run when the rack operates continuously?
The single 80mm fan draws cool air through the aluminium chassis, which acts as a heat sink; noise and temperature depend on the installed drives and case airflow.
Which host interface and controller do I need to use the four hot-swap bays?
Each 3.5" bay connects via SAS I/II/III or SATA I/II/III; a compatible backplane cable and a RAID controller are required for RAID configurations.
Will my existing 3.5" SAS or SATA drives fit and run at 12Gb/s in this unit?
The rack accepts 3.5" SAS I/II/III and SATA I/II/III drives up to 14TB; 12Gb/s transfer is supported when the drive, cable and controller all operate at that speed.
