Comment on Is this a bad option for a home server?
qaz@lemmy.world 10 months agoOh okay, I thought it was a lot bigger. It’s still not going to fit in my Lenovo SFF PC I use as home server.

i got a Fujitsu D556/2 (SFF as well) exactly because it seemed to have an optical drive bay. Turned out it does not have one, but some double sided tape and ugly cable management solved the issue for me :D.

How did you connect it? PCIe?

My model, and I believe all other, have a 4pin molex connector for the power and as many sata ports as the case can handle (in my case 4). My “mobile rack” came with 4 rather long sata cables (about 30cm) so it was easy to fit them through an empty pcie bracket slot and I just had to buy a somewhat long 4pin molex adapter.
The drives are practically internal, they are just located outside of the case in said “mobile rack”.
