apparently this chasis is the same as the RSV-L4411. does that mean i can buy 3 hotswap bays and install them and save money? &amp; use same power switch?

The raw answer is yes since that is what I have done. However, the IstarUSA BPU-350 drive chassis I used do not line up perfectly with the screw holes in the Rosewill cage frames which causes the Istar units to be set back 3/16" from flush and leaves a 1/4 gap between the Istar chassis and the 3rd frame bay. The third frame bay lines up fine though because it uses the Rosewill slide mounts. If you can live with the setback and gap (I filled mine with a piece of foam rubber painted black) you'll be happy. Perhaps some other brand of 5 into 3 chassis won't have the setback but I don't know how you could find out without buying them and checking.

No. You can use any number of bays and it will still work exactly as stated.

I have the mother board and one chasse fan running and another mounted in the chasse powered by the power supply, the board only has 2 provisions for fans, however you could double the back plug pretty easy or add more from your power supply.

I was running it with a 430w PS, and in only 2 days, my PS literally fried. I was running nearly the same # of drives as you listed...

Joe, it's been a few months since I assembled my system but, as I recall, the cable lengths were all very generous. I don't think this should be a problem for you with this PSU. A big plus is all the variety of cables and connectors that are included with this unit. Very versatile package that was highly recommended to me by a serious "techie" at Tiger Direct. I took his advice but made my purchase here.

This is something that could be done, but I would not recommended doing so. Each port is designed to support a maximum of 0.55 Amps draw and a total maximum draw for the entire output of 10 amps. If I needed the extra draw for that one camera I would connect it to its own power adapter, recommending a minimum 2A or 3A adapter. The lower the draw you place on a power adapter, the longer it will live. An ideal draw is 50% or less of rated capacity, 75% considered a maximum. Anything more than this you are stressing the components and will have a lower life expectancy, both the power supply and the connected devices. If things were manufactured the way they used to be (dating myself), everything had a large over design factor so the rating was actually 50% of the theoretical maximum. These days too many products no longer have this over design built in, unless you are talking about military or other specialized use products, at substantially higher cost. It is all about "cheap" while giving the illusion of large output. Do what you want, but please consider what has been stated here. Test your camera to determine its actual current draw, you might find it is substantially lower than rated, or not. Also remember however that draw will vary depending upon duty cycle and environmental temperature. Worth finding out exactly what your equipment uses in all scenarios. I am using this power box for a maximum of ten cameras (each rated at 0.5A) so as to not overload or stress any components. My two cents worth.

I'm using as a dual setup, just buy additional to this.... the second ram(USAutomatic Sentry 300D Commercial Grade Automatic Gate Opener for Dual Solar Swing Gates) here on amazon. The board actually comes equiped for both rams. Tech Support is TOP NOTCH, give them a call.

Has anyone actually successfully converted one of the 5.25 bays to 3.5 for a hard drive? I have 9 hard drives and want to see if this would actually fit them all. Thanks

The docking station has a whole chip with a power regulated switch. It allows for hot swap like a usb. But only the external hard drive slot.

Go to the Morningstar website and all the specs are there. I don't think it will accept the 44V you want o put through it.

Also , if you like I have this item onsale for 1099.00, I purchase the rack mounted version and have no need for 2. So if you like you can pick it up and save 150.00 off. look on ebay, under sto04414, it's a great price on a fairly new NAS.

Guess you gotta spend 30 dollars on the official one. I bought a 4 gig cruzer for my 4 gig 360S and it wont power on as stated above. Works on my PS3 so I guess I can use it there, not that I need it since I got a 320 gig HD in that though....At least it only cost me $10.00.

It seems clear that this unit does not come with a power supply, but seems to have a standard barrel connector to accept an optional power supply. To use small external (2.5") drives I need to have an external power supply. Can someone post a link to a power supply that will supply at least 2 amps and is compatible with this 4-port Sabrent hub?

If you mean the short versus the longer slots (X1 or X 16) it doesn't matter.It is only going to draw the power that it needs because the connectors are only going to connect in a X1 (short slot) mode. The main issue is that you connect the card to an internal power supply, either the Molex connector or the SATA style connector; whichever one will fit. My suggestion is to install it in one of the X1 (short) slots and save the longer slots for something like a video card. Windows 7 will find drivers for it but it's a good idea to use the driver disk that came with it. You're not going to get super blazing speed unless you have some super blazing adapter or protocol installed which most USB 3.0 devices do not have. However, I have been very happy with this device even though I know I'm not going to get the full throughput that is commonly advertised for USB 3.0. You have to read the advertisements carefully because they say UP TO 400+ megabits per second.

Would love to hear how it works out. I would also make sure that your Charge controller can handle the load, if this is an all on to the existing system.
