Notes

  • Toshiba MG07SCA14TE is SAS and needs a SAS HBA or SAS backplane. It will not work in a SATA-only system.
  • Drives only, no cables or trays included.
  • SMART data available for specific drives.
  • Local is San Francisco, CA.
  • Prefer local pickup. I may consider shipping later, but hoping for local pickup first since I do not have a good way to package the drives right now.
  • Cash only.

[FS][US-CA] AIC RSC-4BT 36-Bay 4U Chassis + i5-12600K + ASUS W680 + 64GB DDR5 ECC + 10/14TB HDDs + 2TB SSDs

Downsizing my homelab. 36-bay 4U chassis with optional compute parts, plus a batch of enterprise HDDs and SSDs. All pulled from a working NAS/server setup.

AIC RSC-4BT 4U 36-Bay Rackmount Storage Chassis - $500

AIC RSC-4BT 4U rackmount storage server chassis, 36 bays total (24 front + 12 rear), all 3.5". Bought new, used in a homelab/NAS build.

Included at $500:

  • AIC RSC-4BT 4U chassis
  • 28" tool-less slide rails (rails like these often run $100+ alone)
  • Original box with intact foam inserts
  • Original accessories box with AIC manual and full hardware/screw kit
  • 24-bay front SAS backplane (BBPJHD40001A), 3x SFF-8643, 12G SAS expander built in
  • 12-bay rear SAS backplane (BBPJHD20001A), 3x SFF-8643, 12G SAS expander built in
  • All 36 drive trays (3.5" hot-swap, SATA/SAS; each tray also has 2.5" screw holes for SSDs)
  • 2x 2.5" rear bays
  • 2x AcBel R1CA2122A 1200W 80+ Platinum hot-swap PSUs (CRPS, hot-swappable)
  • 6x 80x38mm PWM fans

Product page: https://www.aicipc.com/en/productdetail/86

Backplanes have built-in 12G SAS expanders. One HBA gets you all 36 bays with no external expander needed. Supports SES for per-slot power control and locate LEDs.

Fans connect to standard motherboard headers and draw power from SATA connectors, so they can actually deliver enough current. Fan control works automatically under Linux through the usual motherboard interfaces.

Standard ATX/E-ATX motherboard fit. A lot of high-density storage chassis are tightly integrated with a specific server board, which locks you into server-grade power consumption. This one takes any prosumer or workstation board you already have, like the W680 with ECC DDR5, without the idle wattage of a full server platform. Good fit for a homelab or NAS that runs 24/7.

The PSUs support PMBus. I've been querying them from Linux via a connector to the W680's SMBus pins. Works with Netdata and anything else that can talk PMBus over I2C.

Dimensions: 430 x 680 x 174.3 mm (16.9 x 26.8 x 6.9"). Weight: ~60 lbs with PSUs.


Optional add-ons (can bundle or sell separately):

Item Price
Intel Core i5-12600K + CPU cooler (original box) $140

Full bundle (chassis + CPU + board + RAM + HBA): DM what you're interested in and I'll put together a price.
