Up for sale are two Norco RPC-4224 24-bay 4U rack mount chassis with rails. They are currently configured as DAS units, but they will support E-ATX motherboards if you want to reconfigure them.
Pictures: ("Chassis A" on the bottom, "Chassis B" on the top)
Current configuration/specs:
IMPORTANT NOTE: The backplanes have 3.3v regulators on board, so for many drives you will end up having to tape over pins 1-3 on the drive's power connector to get them to power up. This is annoying, and if I were keeping them, I would be taking out the backplanes and cutting the traces to 3.3v regulators to permanently fix them.
I've also got some external SAS cables I can include (SFF-8088 to SFF-8644) if you want. Plus power cord.
Currently asking: $250 each individually or $450 for both.
Located in 98030. Local pickup only (or maybe we can arrange delivery within a reasonable distance of 98030).
Looking to sell each one as a complete unit at the moment, but that may change if there's no interest in that.

Current configuration/specs:
- Dell SAS2 expander (N4C2D) with 3x SFF-8088 external connections
- HP 460W PSU with mining breakout board
- 2 or 3 75W 12v to 5v converters to power the backplanes (two in Chassis A and three in Chassis B)
- Two 80mm and one 92mm 4-pin PWM exhaust fans with PWM fan controller (adjustment knob on a PCI slot bracket)
- 120mm internal fan wall and set up for the same PWM fan controller as the exhaust fans) (but no fans or controller, but did leave the knob - needed these parts elsewhere)
- Chassis A has backplanes labeled “01 SAS V1.0”
- Chassis B has backplanes labeled “01 12Gb V2.0”
- 24 trays and required screws each
- Various custom cables and 3D printed parts to really tie the chassis together
- Rails (supposedly the OEM rails but they didn't line up properly in the rack, so I had to redrill the holes on the inner rails so they lined up properly).
