Hey folks. I recovered this from an estate sale. It was missing all the drive trays and looked kinda sad when I saw it. I took it home and made it my project.
During this estate sale liquidation, I gathered up hundreds of supermicro drive trays, so I spent a couple hours this weekend scrubbing dust off them and picked 24 nice ones to put in here. I tested it with my proxmox backup server and it works great! I put a couple 3tb dell drives into the chassis in various slots and they showed right up in smartctl.
Not looking to make a fortune here but it would be nice to see the fruits of my labor pay off and get used in someone's homelab / rack. Looking for $600 (especially if I drop it off). Could probably come a little lower if you're paying freight.
Local pickup preferred and I'll even drop it off within about 200 miles of my house Wildomar, CA (92595) for free. I'll go through the headache of shipping it if you just have to have it from far away, hah.
Here's my "canned" write up:
For Sale: Supermicro CSE-846 4U 24-Bay SAS2 JBOD Chassis
Selling a Supermicro CSE-846 4U 24-bay 3.5" JBOD/storage chassis.
Confirmed components:
The installed Supermicro PWS-1K21P-1R PSUs are rated for up to 1200W on 200–240V input or 1000W on 100–140V input.
Testing:
Tested with a SAS HBA connection. SAS hard drives were detected by the host system through the backplane, and SMART data was readable from the attached SAS drives. Front drive status/activity LEDs illuminate.
Test output showed attached SAS drives through the backplane as SCSI/SAS devices, and SMART data was accessible from the host.
