Chassis purpose and target builds
The Supermicro CSE-842XTQC-R804B is a 4U server chassis designed for rack-mount deployments that need high-density storage and expansion. It suits system integrators building database nodes, virtualization hosts or backup appliances where hot-swap drive access and redundant power are required.
Sustained-load behaviour
Dual 800 W redundant power supplies rated at 94 % efficiency keep the system running if one unit fails. The dual-channel air duct directs cool intake air across the 5x 3.5" SAS3/SATA3 hot-swap bays and the expansion cards, while the front intake fan and optional front bezel filter maintain airflow during continuous operation.
Pre-order checklist
Verify that your rack provides 4U of vertical space and that the motherboard form factor matches the 7x full-height full-length plus 4x full-height half-length slot layout. Confirm the power cords suit the redundant supply connectors and that the 2x front USB 3.0 ports and single COM port meet your management needs.

Questions about this item
How loud and hot does the 800W redundant power supply run at 94% efficiency during continuous operation?
The 94% Platinum efficiency reduces waste heat, so the 800W redundant units stay cooler and the dual-channel air duct keeps airflow steady under load.
Which motherboard form factors fit the 7 full-height full-length and 4 full-height half-length expansion slots?
The slot layout supports standard E-ATX and SSI-EEB boards; check your specific motherboard manual for bracket alignment.
Can I keep using my existing 3.5" SAS3 or SATA3 drives in the 5 hot-swap bays?
Yes, the 5 hot-swap bays accept 3.5" SAS3 and SATA3 drives directly, so current drives slide in without adapters.
