3×5.25″ to 5×3.5″ Hot-Swap Cage
This server accessory converts three 5.25-inch drive bays into five hot-swap slots for 3.5-inch SAS or SATA drives. It supports 6.0 Gb/s transfer speeds and includes an 80mm cooling fan subsystem. The aluminium chassis features conductive dissipation grooves for thermal management.
RAID and JBOD builds needing hot-swap density
Suits administrators building internal RAID or JBOD arrays who require front-access drive swaps without downtime. The cage provides power, drive-activity, fan-status and high-temperature LED indicators. Buyers without three adjacent 5.25-inch bays or those needing more than five drive slots should consider other form factors.
6.0 Gb/s SAS/SATA interface support
The backplane delivers 6.0 Gb/s bandwidth for both SAS and SATA drives, matching modern mechanical drive throughput. Hot-swap operation and RAID functionality require a compatible RAID controller installed separately. This interface specification determines whether the cage matches the host controller and drive performance class.

Questions about this item
Does my server chassis need three free 5.25-inch bays to install this cage?
Yes, the unit occupies three standard 5.25-inch drive bays in the host chassis.
Can I mix the 3.5-inch SAS and SATA drives I already own in the same cage?
Both SAS and SATA 6.0 Gb/s drives are supported in the five hot-swap trays, so existing drives of either type will work.
Which front-panel LEDs confirm the cage is running normally after I power up?
Power, drive activity, fan status and high-temperature warning LEDs are visible on the front panel.
