Serverbehuizing Supermicro SuperChassis 213BAC8-R1K23LPB rack zwart

The Supermicro SuperChassis 213BAC8-R1K23LPB Rack Black is a 1U rack server chassis engineered for dense storage and reliable power delivery in professional IT environments. Designed to accommodate up to sixteen 2.5" drives plus a single 5.25" bay, it supports EATX and ATX motherboards and includes a built-in 1200 W power supply. With a compact height of 89 mm, width of 437 mm and depth of 630 mm, the chassis fits standard rack configurations and is intended for data center and enterprise server deployments that require high drive density and continuous operation.

Advantages

The chassis offers high drive density by providing space for sixteen 2.5" drives, enabling large-capacity storage in a 1U profile. Integrated 1200 W power ensures sufficient, stable power for populated configurations under sustained load. Compatibility with EATX and ATX motherboards gives flexibility for a range of server platforms, while the black finish conforms to typical rack aesthetics. The single 5.25" bay allows for optional optical or modular accessories without compromising drive capacity.

Suitable for

• High-density storage servers and virtualization hosts
• Enterprise backup, archival and database applications
• Rack deployments in colocation and data center environments
• Custom server builds requiring EATX or ATX motherboard support

How to use

Install an EATX or ATX motherboard into the chassis using the provided standoffs and secure it according to standard server assembly procedures. Populate the hot-swap or fixed trays with 2.5" drives and mount any optional device into the single 5.25" bay if required. Connect power to the 1200 W supply and route power cables to the motherboard, drives and any installed peripherals. Ensure internal airflow paths are clear and install the chassis into a compatible 19" rack using appropriate rails or mounting hardware. Follow chassis service manual guidelines for drive hot-swap, cable management and any front-panel or backplane connections.

Recommendations

For sustained reliability, use drives rated for 24/7 operation and balance drive population to maintain adequate cooling. Verify power and cooling requirements of the complete system before deployment, and install the chassis in a rack with proper ventilation and environmental monitoring.
