HOTCFWQ S465-24 24-bay 4U server chassis

24-Bay 4U Rackmount Chassis

The HOTCFWQ S465-24 is a 4U rackmount server chassis built for high-density storage deployments. It fits a standard 19-inch rack and accepts motherboards up to 12 by 13 inches. Twenty-four hot-swappable 3.5-inch drive bays support SATA and SAS drives at 6Gb/s speeds. This chassis targets integrators building cloud storage, big data, or surveillance platforms.

Air Cooling With Three High-Flow Fans

Cooling is handled by three 12038H ball-bearing fans supplied as standard. The fans move air across the drive bays and motherboard area to manage thermal load in a fully populated 24-bay configuration. A temperature control chipset on the backplane monitors conditions and can adjust fan behaviour accordingly. The steel construction aids structural rigidity but does not add active cooling.

Flexible Backplane And Power Options

The unit ships with a choice of 6Gb/s or 12Gb/s MINI SAS or expander backplanes, each including the temperature control chipset. This selection determines how the 24 drive bays connect to the host controller and affects cabling topology. Power can be supplied by a standard PS2 unit or a redundant power supply, allowing the builder to match availability requirements. Seven full-height PCI/PCIe expansion slots and two front USB 2.0 ports (with optional USB 3.0) complete the I/O and expansion capacity.
