## Overview

Featuring individual metal key locks, built-in cooling fan, and a sleek brushed finish, it’s engineered for professionals demanding secure, efficient, and high-performance storage expansion.

## Description

To accommodate PC users' need for more storage flexibility and convenience, SilverStone created a line of front bay storage products called the FS series. These are 5.25" bay chassis designed to fit 3.5" SAS/SATA drives. Equipped with release handle made out of finely brushed aluminum, hot-swapping drives is extremely quick and comfortable. Built-in cooling fan behind the chassis ensures drives run cool for extended life while individual LED indicators let users easily monitor drive status in one glance. For security, each drive tray also has metal key lock. For those that need to upgrade their current PC with more drives, SilverStone's FS series is a great choice.

Review: Solid Storage Expansion - I recently picked up the SilverStone FS305-12G to add some extra drives to my system, and I'm really happy with it. This thing is built like a tank! Swapping drives is super easy with the hot-swap bays, which is awesome. I was worried about compatibility with my SAS drives, but it works perfectly. The built-in fan does a good job keeping things cool, and it's way quieter than I expected. I actually bought a Noctua fan to replace it, but honestly, I don't think I'll bother. It even comes with a key to lock the drives, which is a nice touch, and the little LED lights let you know what's going on. If you need more space for hard drives, definitely check this out. It's been great so far!
Review: Almost, very close to perfect - This probably should get somewhere between 4 and 5 stars, but 5 stars is for perfection. It's close but not quite there. My main issue with it is the latch mechanism which works well but I don't like how the strike plate is plastic. The latch is metal, but the stationary part that the latch hooks into is plastic. It's probably ok but I pull the release as I close the door because I'm picky and don't know if it'll wear the strike plate. If this is the only real complaint I can come up with, that should tell you the product is pretty good. There's a blue power LED, and each drive slot has its own LED that is blue when drive is present and a red LED that shines through the same little window for drive activity, making it turn purple when there's activity. And a fan hi/lo speed control which is awesome. I replaced resistors on the PCB to drastically lower the blinding LEDs and make the fan speed even lower, something that isn't easy to do unless you're good with SMD soldering. Interestingly the fan is a 3 wire but I don't believe the 3rd wire (tach) is used for anything. It doesn't complain when the fan is disconnected. Overall I love it.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everything you expect & a few surprises
*by A***M on September 20, 2026*

Very impressived with the build quality, when adding/removing drives it’s tight & smooth, no wiggle Nothing! I debated this purchase for a while, should have bought a longtime ago. The tray less feature will save alot of time when doing backups. This price is a little too high in my opinion but it’s definitely well made so up to you.
