Hello everyone

I'm looking to buy a rackable chassis to migrate my NAS. I don't have a strong preference on the size, but it should accomodate for a regular mATX motherboard and two low profiles cards (I'll install an X570D4U in it).
The chassis is meant to be installed in its closed rack in the basement, but still I would prefer no screaming fans for when the family is walking around (also the basement door is not so much soundproof). Something like a CSE-826/836/846 with a SQ powersupply would be great.

Wishlist:
  • 2U/3U/4U
  • Mounting rails
  • Powersupply (no real need for redundancy, but if so they should not be louder than SM SQ ones)
  • at least 12 3.5" hotswap bays
Nice to have
  • SAS3 expander
  • Sliding rails
  • Easily replaceable / serviceable parts
  • Some of the drive caddies support mounting 2.5" drives
Shipping would be to Luxembourg

If interested, I have an AIC J3016-01-03X 16 bay JBOD SAS3 for sell. Shipping from Spain.

400€ a bit negotiable (no mounting rails)

For now I'm looking for a chassis where I can install the motherboard inside, but that's a nice piece for extensibility for sure.
