Three-bay rack adds five hot-swap slots

The BPU-350HD-BLUE fits three 5.25-inch front bays and provides five hot-swap trays for 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch drives. It supports SAS I/II/III and SATA I/II/III at up to 12Gb/s. A blue aluminum front bezel and black aluminum chassis with conductive grooves aid heat dissipation. One 80mm fan with speed control cools the installed drives.

Suits servers needing dense hot-swap storage

This unit serves administrators who want tool-less drive changes and front-panel status LEDs for power, drive activity, fan operation and high temperature. It includes five SATA cables and is validated for drives up to 14TB. Builders without three adjacent 5.25-inch bays, or who require an integrated RAID controller, should consider a different enclosure.

12Gb/s SAS and SATA interface support

The backplane handles both SAS and SATA protocols across three generations, delivering a maximum transfer rate of 12Gb/s. This single specification determines whether the rack matches the host controller and drive types in the target system.
