Mini-Tower Server Chassis

The Supermicro CSE-731I-404B is a black mini-tower server chassis built for Micro-ATX motherboards up to 9.6 x 9.6 inches. It ships with a 400W Gold-certified power supply and a side window panel. The compact frame measures 140 x 150 x 86 mm. It suits small-footprint server builds or quiet workstations.

Drive Bay Configuration

This chassis provides two external 5.25-inch drive bays and four internal 3.5-inch drive bays on a 90-degree rotatable cage. That cage layout is the single specification that determines whether your storage plan fits. Builds needing more than four 3.5-inch drives or any 2.5-inch-only mounts cannot use this case.

Installation Notes

The rear 9 cm PWM fan runs at 2050 RPM and an optional front 8 cm PWM fan at 2800 RPM can be added for intake. Whisper-quiet operation is rated below 25 dB. Front I/O includes two USB 3.0 ports. A Kensington lock slot is provided. Verify Micro-ATX board clearance and PSU cable routing before assembly.

What does the Micro-ATX motherboard limit mean for expansion cards?
