Rosewill 2U Server Chassis/Server Case/Rackmount Case, Metal Rack Mount Computer Case support with 4 bays (RSV-2600)

Paid 230$ for this case not long ago. Dont know why they went full retard with the price lately but for 230$ it is a decent case and the hot swap bays work ok. I would buy again at that price but for 699$ don't even think about it, add 300-400$ and you have a complete, good quality nas solution with 12 bays. This is just a case..

I purchased this for a plex server because I needed the 6+ harddrive bays for lots of storage. Not many upright options on the market at this price so I decided to do a rack mount. Very happy. It’s not a fancy, RGB case but it’s super functional. Not extremely heavy, I actually have it mounted horizontally to the wall. Comes with 2 120mm fans in the harddrive bays, one 80mm rear fan. Fans are not the best quality but they work for my purpose. Has a key lock which is convenient. Screws are terrible, I replaced most of them with higher quality screws after stripping many of the stock ones during install. Big enough for a full sized graphics card (I have a 1080TI) and lots of PCI bays. Since most of us don’t use optical you can easily buy or 3d print mounts to fill the two disc drive bays with more drives, I have 9 hard drives installed.If you want something that works this is not a bad case. Be gentle with the screws and you’ll really enjoy this product.

Perfect for home server. Plenty of drive bays as I'd wanted. Added in a Rosewill RSV-SATA-Cage-34, which doesn't seat perfectly flush (couple millimetres off) but you can't beat the value of this chassis. Have not tried using the hot-swap bays yet, will update this review if I have any SATA issues.

Overall a great experience and a great product. Very cost effective for a music and video editing rig, rack mounted. Nice and quiet, fits perfectly, lots of room for gear. Some of the fasteners as perhaps a little bit old school but I enjoyed the build and the system is running great! Recommended

If you get this on sale, this is a FANTASTIC case, except the fans. They are junk. Pure junk. I will be replacing them eventually. This case is heavy. Easy wire management, excuse my horrible picture of my horrible wire management. I was in a rush.You will have all the room you need to work, the centre fan stack comes out with the removal of a screw allowing you to run wires as you wish. AGAIN, use caution on the fans, nearly shorted out my MOBO when I turned it on, because one of the connections wasn't properly seated into the white plastic housing. As in, one wire was loose and free for the power. This could have been a very expensive disaster.For the price, you wonder where corners were cut. It was the wiring and fans. Get rid of them. If you buy, ENSURE YOU CHECK all the plastic housing for the fans power. Again, nearly lost my MOBO because of a short and spark when I turned it on.The HDD cages work excellent. My old tower case 12 HDD's were running between 35-45 degrees. This has dropped down to between 25-38 degrees, give or take how large the HDD is. 8TB's are running hotter than 3TB for example.Airflow is good in those cages, and will be better after I change fans. I don't rack mount, so I can't speak to it. Mine is placed in the TV cabinet, with about 8 inches of clearance above.
