Product overview
This is the Supermicro SuperChassis 946 45-Bay 4U SAS/SATA JBOD storage Enclosure, order code CSE-946LE1C-R1K66JBOD. An expansion shelf has to be supported by the head unit's firmware, not merely cabled to it. This chassis takes 45 drives. Tell us the controller and we will confirm the shelf is on its supported list.
Ask for the datasheet and firmware notes with the quote; we would rather you check our claim than take it.

Questions buyers ask about this part
Is CSE-946LE1C-R1K66JBOD genuine and is the warranty intact?
Yes, new and sealed, with the Supermicro warranty and the firmware update path intact. We do not sell refurbished stock as new, and we do not source grey-market units.
Will CSE-946LE1C-R1K66JBOD work in my server?
Send us the server model or service tag and we will confirm before you order. Part numbers alone do not always settle it: firmware revision and platform generation matter, and this is the check that prevents a return.
Do you accept purchase orders and quote at volume?
Yes, POs from qualified organisations, net terms on approval, and banded pricing once the quantity is worth banding. Send the number and we will price it properly.
