Compact storage tower for Mini-ITX builds

The iStarUSA S-35-3DE1BK is a black aluminium and steel tower chassis that accepts a Mini-ITX motherboard. It targets home-lab builders and small-office users who need dense, hot-swappable storage in a desktop footprint without a full rack cabinet.

Three 3.5-inch trayless hot-swap bays

The front cage holds three 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drives at 6.0 Gb/s and lets you swap them without tools or trays. A single internal 2.5-inch bay adds room for an OS SSD. Only one expansion slot is available, so add-in cards beyond the board I/O are not supported.

Single 120 mm fan with front USB 2.0

One 120 mm fan provides baseline airflow through the 4 mm aluminium front panel. Two front USB 2.0 ports give convenient peripheral access. The compact 8.90 x 8.68 x 12.76 inch dimensions limit cooling headroom for high-wattage components.

Questions about this item

Will the 3.5" hot-swap bays work with my existing 6.0Gb/s SATA drives?

Yes, the chassis supports 6.0Gb/s SATA and SAS hard drives in all three trayless bays.

How can I confirm the 120mm fan is cooling the drives after installation?

Power on the system and verify the fan spins; drive temperatures should stay within normal operating ranges under load.

Does the package include mounting hardware for the internal 2.5" bay and mini-ITX motherboard?

Standard mounting screws for the motherboard and 2.5" drive are included; drives and power supply are purchased separately.
