Overview
StarTech.com’s RAIDBAY3 is the perfect solution for building hot-swap SCSI RAID
arrays. Up to (3) 3.5 inch drives can be installed in this all aluminum chassis, each in
their own independent removable drive drawer. The frame and drawer design of the

movement over the drives to maintain ideal operating temperatures. This ensures long
service life and less downtime.
