## 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: Very versatile and robust bay. - This is ideal for the rack mount case that I'm putting together - I'm already using the three existing 5-1/4" bays for a tape and an optical drive, so I'm replacing one of the 120mm front fan and 5x 3-1/2" drive combo bays with this. A bonus is that if I don't have SAS drives handy for whatever reason, or I need to use laptop drives, this unit has the flexibility to allow me to use SATA or different footprint drives. The actual cage is made of ridiculously heavy gauge metal; it would be difficult to damage, I think. And while I could wish the plastic trays were a little more robust, with care they should last longer than the case itself, and they are easy and precise in regard to insertion and removal. The only surprise in the description was that I had to guess the fan size from the part number in the photo, and I guessed wrong. I thought it had a 120mm fan; it turned out to be 80mm, but it is a nice PWM fan.
Review: Cage is great, but the fan leaves something to be desired. - The cage seems well constructed and the technical functionality has been superb. However, I did have to replace the fan on the unit after less than 2 weeks use. The fan started making clicking sounds. As I didn't want to be without a cage, I replaced the fan with an extra fan I had. Standard power connectors, sizing, and mounting made this easy, but I knocked one star off due to the fan failure.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Costs a bit more, but seems built quite a bit better
*by P***N on February 22, 2025*

I have a couple old-style PC computer cases with openings for three 5.25 inch drives, and I have lots of 3.5 inch hard drives. A couple years ago, I bought a couple other, cheaper brands of these sorts of bays to fit four 3.5" drives into each of my case's three high drive bays ... that worked ... but the slots and connectors started failing over time, due to cheap construction. One by one, a slot would start failing. I've now replaced those older, cheaper, bays with a pair of these Silverstone FS304 bays, and I am initially pleased with the construction of these bays. Each point of failure on my older cheaper bays seems to have been better engineered and manufactured on this Silverstone bay. Now I expect these Silverstone FS304 bays to last quite a bit longer. Also my drives slide in and out more easily and precisely aligned, and now I no longer need to attach a custom bracket to each drive, as this bay is designed to accept naked 3.5" hard drives, as is. Good stuff, as I often see from Silverstone.
