Computerkabinet Supermicro SC504-203B Mini Tower sort

The Supermicro SC504-203B Mini Tower is a compact computer case designed for systems using x86 processors and DDR3-SDRAM memory. Its internal layout supports memory modules from 1GB up to 8GB per module with a maximum internal memory of 16GB. The chassis includes an AMI BIOS with 128 Mbit memory and supports RAID levels 0, 1, 5 and 10 to provide options for data redundancy and performance. Physical dimensions are 437 mm (width) × 249 mm (depth) × 43 mm (height), and the front panel offers four USB 2.0 ports.

Advantages

Supermicro chassis design emphasizes airflow efficiency and serviceability: the SC504-203B adopts proven air-shroud concepts and hot-plug heavy-duty fans with fan speed controls to improve cooling and allow for 100% airflow redundancy. The compact mini-tower format combines space-saving dimensions with support for RAID configurations and a full-featured AMI BIOS, making it suitable for small servers and workstation builds.

Suitable for

• Small office servers and NAS systems
• Workstations requiring DDR3 memory and RAID support
• Compact x86-based systems where reliable cooling is needed
