Three 5.25" bays for four hot-swap drives
This iStarUSA BPU-340SATA cage converts three standard 5.25" drive bays into four hot-swappable slots for 2.5" or 3.5" SAS and SATA drives. It is built for servers and workstations that need high-density storage without sacrificing front-panel space. The unit supports RAID 1, 0, 1+0 and 5 when paired with a separate RAID controller.
Aluminum chassis with conductive grooves and an 80
The main body and handles are aluminium, finished with conductive dissipation grooves that pull heat away from the drives. A single 80 mm fan provides front-to-back airflow across all four bays. Front LEDs show power, drive activity, fan status and high-temperature warnings so operators can monitor health at a glance.
Check bay count, controller and drive height
Verify the chassis has three adjacent 5.25" bays free and that your RAID or HBA card offers enough SAS or SATA 6.0Gbps ports for four drives. The tray design accepts both 2.5" and 3.5" devices, but confirm the total drive height fits your enclosure depth. No mounting rails or cables are included.
