Yes its SATA based. But, if I remember correctly you can get the SCA 80 Backplane.
If you want performance you might want to upgrade to WDC 150G 10k rpm SATA Drives. You will be impressed with the performance. I made one filled with WDC 150GB 10k pm drives and it the speed was very nice. A bit expensive per drive, but well worth the price.

Beave, This looks nice, but it seems to be SATA based. Am I correct? My RAID case is 3x U160 18.4GB Hitachi hd's. I am using an Adaptec ~3200S RAID card. Sadly, the server is still scsi................ :) And my server work very well......... :) Best, Duncan At 14:01 12/14/2007 -0800, you wrote: >Hello, > >I myself use and recommend the Chenbro RM31212B #U Raid/Server Rack mount >case. > >http://usa.chenbro.com/corporatesite/products_detail.php?serno=33 > >Right now I have 2 Dual core Xeons in the system with 12 500GB Hard drives >in Raid 5+1 with spare configuration. > >The only con I can say is get a powerful Power supply if you want to put in >more than 12 HD's.
