WTB: Supermicro 1U "WIO" window

[kapone]

Specifically, part number MCP-240-00098-0N. This is the WIO window for the 113/116/815 chassis. I've called a few places, and no one seems to have them in stock.

I could use a few of them. Anybody got any lying around?

Have you tried contacting Supermicro RMA? That's where I get mine from. Prices tend to be good too.

In process. They are not exactly the quickest...

Oddly enough, they have been quoting me fairly inflated prices for stuff lately. I needed a handle (with the LED board inside it) for an 846 recently, and typically they go for about $17. They quoted me $34...

Supermicro came through... Ordered 4 from them.

You have any of the standard windows you are removing that you don't want?

That's a thought! I will be. Gimme a few days to swap things over and I'll give you a shout?

Yeah, please send me a message when you're done. We have a bunch of chassis with no back window currently from a big decom project. If you could send me the part number to make sure it is what I'm expecting, that would be great as well.

Sure.

The part number for the standard window (1 full height/length PCI card) is MCP-240-00086-0N. It looks like this:


The part number for the WIO window (2 full height/length PCI cards and 1 half height/half length) is MCP-240-00098-0N. It looks like this:


Note: The I/O panel is removable as such, but IS different between the two windows (not the ports, the ports are the same and in the same position, the above is just an illustration from the manual, as far as I know) as you can see. I hope the new ones come with the I/O panel...

I have a few of these chassis, so could be useful. Message me if you're interested in selling when you're done.

Will do.
