Questions about this item

Should I pick the cage with two 3.5" bays or a single-bay version?

This cage provides two 3.5" bays in a 1/3H front-accessible design, so it suits servers needing a pair of drives in one slot.

What does the 1/3H form factor mean once the cage is installed in my server?

The 1/3H height fits a standard half-height front bay, letting you slide both 3.5" drives in and out without tools.
