SM 1U 8x 2.5" bay chassis - $130/ ea

BTW, curious ?'s o' the day...can a sataDOM fit in one of these 1U SM cases and how would one connect a minisas-HD conn to the back of this chassis' backplane...a SFF8643 to 4x sata cable of some sort?

Something like this maybe?

EDIT: One last one for now, what is the proper air shroud for this guy if i was gonna run a Xeon-D in it, assuming I need one of these? This one?

Are you thinking SATA DOM on a Xeon D board in one of these? If so I am betting it will work. Rails arrived yesterday. Cases hopefully today.

Well, my four came... no trays. Just sent the seller a note.

Wow - that seller is awesome. 7 minutes later and he has sent me three notes and said he will get them out tomorrow or Monday. +1 for the seller's jumping on this on a Friday evening.
