1-Meter mini-SAS HD to mini SAS (SFF-8644 to SFF-8088) Cable

Bleeding fantastic - I have three of these powered off a 700W PSU, 14 drives, power from PSU, Sata cable from each drive into a SATA to USB adapter, into a 10 port hub x 2, USB 3 lead to PC - voila, 14 external drives. Quiet operation, drives kept cool. HDD mounting by 4 specific mounting screws per drive, which slot into runners. Drive locked in by a plunger clip per drive. Finger tight on the screws is enough. Power switch controls PSU, which powers drive. To avoid confusion, a 12v fan splitter should be used to power a second (or third} unit fan, they don't need a separate PSU. Recommend these highly... Other than the import duty - comes on Amazon UK, stock these in country!

This is the most basic you can get with adding more drives to a case that won't hold them. I needed to purchase sata extended cables to work. As the Pic shows, there is nothing attractive about this which for me is the tough part. I was able to hide this around the entertainment area so it is out of sight but besides that, this holds the drives so the disc's don't scratch, has basic fan to help. Let me add 17tb to a case that holds only 2 drives. This has worked as planned.

I make movies and build my own computers. Needed an external rack to house many hard drives. Bought one and just bought another, they are perfect and do the job as described.
