3U Chassis with 16 Hot-Swap Bays

This 3U server chassis holds sixteen front-access 3.5" drives and three internal 2.5" drives. The 6Gb/s expander backplane uses SFF8087 mini-SAS connectors and adds SGPIO signalling with staggered spin-up. Tool-free top cover removal and anti-EMI drive carriers with activity LEDs simplify daily maintenance.

Suited for Dense Storage Builds

The enclosure fits standard motherboards up to 12" × 10.5" and provides seven full-height vertical PCIe slots. Three hot-swap 12038 ball fans and dual 2.0 USB ports are included. Builders who need more than sixteen front bays, horizontal card orientation, or a smaller form factor should consider a different platform.

Sustained Operation with Redundant Cooling

Three hot-swap 12038 ball fans maintain airflow under continuous load while the expander backplane manages drive temperatures. The chassis accepts standard 2U or CRPS redundant power supplies up to 240 mm long. Front-panel LEDs report power, fan, over-heat and drive status for quick diagnostics.

Questions about this item

Which motherboard size must I already have to fit this 3U chassis?

The chassis accepts standard motherboards up to 12 × 10.5 inches, so your board must not exceed those dimensions.

Can I keep my existing 2.5″ drives when moving to this chassis?

Yes, the 16 front bays take 3.5″ drives and are also compatible with 2.5″ HDD or SSD, plus three internal 2.5″ slots are provided.

How do I confirm the expander backplane is operating correctly after installation?

Each drive tray has a light-guide column that shows the drive working state, and the backplane supports SGPIO so drive activity and status appear on the front LEDs.
