Dense 2U storage server chassis

The Rosewill RSV-H208 is a 2U rackmount chassis built for builds that need eight hot-swap 3.5" drive bays in a compact height. It suits storage-heavy workloads such as video editing, virtualization or a primary file server. The open-box unit ships with three 8038 PWM fans pre-installed.

Eight 12Gbps hot-swap bays with SGPIO

The single specification that decides fit is the front bay count and protocol: eight bays wired through SFF8643 backplanes with SGPIO and temperature control, running at 12Gbps for both SATA and SAS drives. No other bay count or speed is offered on this model.

E-ATX board, CRPS supply, 75 mm cooler limit

The chassis accepts motherboards up to 12" x 13" E-ATX, seven expansion slots, and a 2U CRPS power supply up to 280 mm long. CPU coolers must not exceed 75 mm height, and graphics cards are limited to 275 mm length. Front I/O provides one USB 3.0 and one USB 3.2 Type-C port. Builders needing more than eight bays or a taller cooler must choose a different enclosure.

Questions about this item

What does the 12Gbps rating on the eight hot-swap bays actually deliver once drives are installed?

Each bay runs at up to 12Gbps over SAS or SATA through the SFF-8643 backplane, so the full bandwidth is available to every drive simultaneously.

How does the 2U CRPS power supply standard limit the units I can use?

The chassis only accepts 2U CRPS redundant power supplies up to 280 mm long, so standard ATX or 1U units will not fit.

What clearance do I need to fit a CPU cooler and a graphics card in this 2U chassis?

The CPU cooler must be 75 mm or shorter, and any GPU cannot exceed 275 mm in length.
