TechD87 Posted September 17, 2019 Report Posted September 17, 2019 Good afternoon! I'm looking at the 900 to be the chassis of my next major build. It's going to be a media server (amongst other things) and I really only have one major question that I need answered at this time... The x4 3.5 bay drive that's mounted in the back. Is it possible to buy additional brackets to add more HDD's? My intention is to run UnRAID. I want to use the x2 2.5 SSD as the cache drives & the front x2 3.5 space for parity drives. All the drives in the back will be the array. I'm sure I can find a fix for it, but if someone already has the answer that would save me a lot of time. Thanks! Tech Quote
gsusking2 Posted December 30, 2019 Report Posted December 30, 2019 Did you ever find a solution for this problem? I am personally in the exact same situation struggling to find a work around. Quote
Tech-Guruz Posted April 1, 2020 Report Posted April 1, 2020 I’m hoping someone has a solution since I am building an UnRaid server I need to house 20+ drives in the rear and to make matters worse I threaded a screw on one of the cages and now it can’t even support its own weight let alone the weight of a couple of 12tb drives.

Chris Welch Posted July 19, 2020 Report Posted July 19, 2020 I used mountain mods 120mm fan HDD brackets to mount 12 drives to the back of a 480 radiator, other than that, you might have to go custom Quote

Kiodah Posted July 28, 2020 Report Posted July 28, 2020 I dont need the HDD bay but I need the bracket below to accommodate 2 560mm rads. I would be willing to trade. Quote
