Review: Its sheetmetal and screws... perfect for what you need! - This is one of those products that you either need or dont. In my usage, I have a few internal hard drives and a modded case to allow SATA pass through outside. I doubt this thing can fit inside a computer case (it might though) but the way its designed, its a simple rack to hold 5 drives outside the case. Theres no backplane, no USB 3.0 conversion or anything, just simple walls of metal to hold drives. And it works perfect! With it, I can stick 3 external drives on here and put in a small spare PSU on the bottom and literally plug and play to my machine. The thing has anti-vibration feet and while the drive connections are somewhat solid (you connect them directly to the cage with screws and slide into a track), the plastic track keeps vibration down so its not noticeable. I barely hear the fan but you can always swap it with a noctua or something if you need be (standard 3 pin fan). For what it is, Id expect the price to be closer to the $15 dollar range, but its one of the few products that isnt overly-fancy or looks out of place on a desk (compared to those 5.25" 3.5 bay enclosures) so Im not complaining on price. Buy it if you need it, and trust that itll work.... long term usage, I have no idea on reliability, but since like 99.9% of the components that could fail are what I supply, Im not too concerned. Review: Very well designed drive cage - I moved my home server, as part of an OS upgrade, from a Frankenserver case to a new HP proliant m110 G7 with 4 internal drive slots. I had 7 drves in my existing server case, that used an internal cage to held 3 additional internal drives. The internal cage would not fit inside the new HP case. (I could have bored a single hole in base of that case and mounted just as this one is to the exterior of the HP case.) This cage has foam pads under its base. It firmly attaches to the top of the HP case with a single screw through the center of the cage's base plate. Once mounted, it is stable and firmly in place. The drive mounting screws slide into cage rails and are held in place by a mechanical locking pin. The cage came with a standard plug for attaching an auxillary computer power supply. I decided to remove that in favor of running a power cord from the HP's power unit within the case. I also bought a 1M SAS to 4 SATA cable to connect 4 drives within the case to my RAID card. I used the cage's 5th drive slot for a SATA drive, that is connected to a motherboard SATA port, for C: drive backups. I also added a 120mm fan screen to keep things out of the fan. All in all, this unit fit my needs to a "T." I might add side panels to dress it up some when time permits. ## Features - Houses up to five hard drives by using easy to install turnbuckle screws. - Designed with a 4.7ΒΏ cooling fan and a hollow aluminum frame for efficient heat dissipation. - Designed with an ON/OFF power switch, which controls the power of hard drives, when a 20-pin or 24-pin ATX power supply is connected. - Expandable to 10-bay by stacking an additional unit on top and securing it with a tool-less screw. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B001LF40KE | | Antenna Location | Business | | Best Sellers Rank | #4,659 in Internal Hard Drives #72,375 in Computer Internal Components | | Brand | Sans Digital | | Case Type | Desktop | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Servers | | Cooling Method | Air | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 132 Reviews | | Enclosure Material | Aluminum | | Fan Size | 3.7 Inches | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00739410731111 | | Hard Disk Form Factor | 3.5 Inches | | Internal Bays Quantity | 5 | | Item Dimensions D x W x H | 6.7"D x 7.6"W x 7"H | | Manufacturer | Sans Digital | | Material | Aluminum | | Mfr Part Number | HDDRACK5 | | Model Name | ST-SAN-HDDRACK5 | | Model Number | HDDRACK5 | | Motherboard Compatability | ATX | | Number of Fans | 5 | | Other Special Features of the Product | 5-Bay Organization, Efficient Heat Dissipation, Expandable Design, ON/OFF Power Switch | | Power Supply Mounting Type | Bottom Mount | | Recommended Uses For Product | Business | | Supported Motherboard | ATX | | UPC | 739410731111 102645821634 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | | Warranty Description | 1 Year Part & Labor | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Sans Digital - **Case Type:** Desktop - **Color:** Black - **Cooling Method:** Air - **Fan Size:** 3.7 Inches - **Material:** Aluminum - **Model Name:** ST-SAN-HDDRACK5 - **Motherboard Compatability:** ATX - **Power Supply Mounting Type:** Bottom Mount - **Recommended Uses For Product:** Business ## Images ![HDDRACK5 5-Bay IDE/SATA Hard Drive Organizing Rack - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71nCGc69U1L.jpg) ![HDDRACK5 5-Bay IDE/SATA Hard Drive Organizing Rack - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/410SRpGpzOL.jpg) ![HDDRACK5 5-Bay IDE/SATA Hard Drive Organizing Rack - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/619rgmfT5QL.jpg) ![HDDRACK5 5-Bay IDE/SATA Hard Drive Organizing Rack - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71TDU4FB7ZL.jpg) ![HDDRACK5 5-Bay IDE/SATA Hard Drive Organizing Rack - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71EUeKcIteL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: IS there an efficient way to mount these into a server rack?** A: It is set up to be an independent rack. However, I mounted mine but drilling holes in the base. It can be done but it voids the warranty **Q: Is it safe to mount a power supply on a piece of wood with this hddrack5 rack? if so which power supply wood be best for this?** A: Sure. Not the best option, but..... I use 500, 650 and 700 power supply's, depends on the total stuff being plugged in. Add up all the amps and choose with at least 20% greater capacity. **Q: does this come with the brackets to mount your hard drives in it?** A: The 20 screws are designed as a 'T' where the top of the T slides into a groove in the sides of each rack. A push pull button on both left and right side for each drive secures the drive so it wont accidently slide out. The rack works great. I have two that are stacked together to make a tall 10 drive rack. **Q: How do you connect to a computer?** A: You don't! You simply place 1-5 Hard drives in it & then hook it up to a spare (Or separate) Power Supply unit. It uses the same "Primary" connector cable from the power supply, so you can't use it from your initial p/s inside your computer case (It would currently be supplying power to your computer's MoBo). You don't need anything fancy in the way of a PSU, since it's only powering up the chassis fan that comes with it...and however many HDD/SSD's you have mounted in it. Me personally, i built an entirely separate case/housing unit from scratch...added a cheap PSU & this 5-Bay unit, then bought SATA to USB adapters for each HDD in the 5-Bay tower. I then ran all of them into a 5-port USB hub...and from the hub, over to my computer. Kinda like a JBOD setup (5 HDD's going into one 5-port USB hub turns it into 1 giant HDD....kinda'). If you do this, you really need to let each HDD read "Separately" after you plug each into the USB hub...not all at once! That's all the advice i gots! ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Its sheetmetal and screws... perfect for what you need! *by D***Y on January 14, 2015* This is one of those products that you either need or dont.

This rack did the job just fine. The setup was easy enough - simply screw in four thumbscrews per drive, then slide it into the rack's bay. The plastic snap was a bit tight for my WD drives, but my Seagate drives snapped in just fine. After being fully assembled, the whole enclosure feels pretty solid (no shaking drives, etc.). I opted to use a 200W power supply from a leftover case to owed these drives externally. The fan works decently, although it's definitely not the the quietest fan; however, it's just in a closet anyways, and the drives themselves combined are much louder than the cooling fan, so it's not that bad. My only complaint is that I wish the rack had some way to mount the power supply, so it's easier to organize and move around. A power supply just dangling around is neither the safest nor most aesthetic thing... But again, in a server closet, it's not that big of a problem. For the price, I probably couldn't ask for more, so I'd recommend this to anyone looking to expand their storage solution. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.it/products/3750361-hddrack5-5-bay-ide-sata-hard-drive-organizing-rack](https://www.desertcart.it/products/3750361-hddrack5-5-bay-ide-sata-hard-drive-organizing-rack) --- *Product available on Desertcart Italy* *Store origin: IT* *Last updated: 2026-05-14*
