The construction is solid, although you can take most of it apart if you need to. It does what it sets out to, and looks good while doing it.The few issues that i have with it are fairly minor and really personal preference things.The fan, even on low was easily the loudest thing in my case. That sounds worse than it is though, I run completely silent systems other than the sound of hard drive internals. Even on low this fan could be heard pretty clearly 4-6 ft away, I pretty much expected that though, so i replaced the fan with an 80mm gelid hooked to a fan controller. I did have to use different screws and completely remove the little fan shroud that is attached however, as the width of the stock fan is unusual. The connector on the board is also a non standard 3 pin fan header, so you either have to do some splicing of the original fan wires or cutting around the header and force a fit.Would be nice if the leds were also red instead of the blue that all colors of this rack seem to contain. This can be somewhat fixed if you take the unit apart and coat the clear plastic that carries the led light with red electrical tape.Would be nice if there was a way to accomodate 2.5" drives easily. You can fit them in, but on anything other than the bottom it will be a bit of a balancing act. Again, not a surprise here, would just be a bonus.Overall a fantastic unit and I would not hesitate to buy another unit... just factor in the cost of a secondary fan unless you have an already noisy system ### ⭐⭐⭐ easy to replace though - Very flimsy latch handles *by M***V on Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2017* Pros: looks ok, has led shutoff switch, fan low\high switchCons:- Loud fan, easy to replace though- Very flimsy latch handles, broke one off while opening the latch within the first few moments of operation. The pin which holds the handle is basically held by a millimeter or so of very brittle plastic, and when you extract an HDD you basically pull it out from the connectors (which takes some force) using this latch. The result is predictable. Suggestion for users - employ a different method: open the latch using the handle, but do not use it for removal of the drive itself; instead, grab the door, and pull on it, as it is very much sturdier. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best Cage Ever *by S***K on Reviewed in the United States on January 14, 2016* I have another set of hot swappable bays on another pc. When I got those I thought they were the coolest thing.But Now. WOW these are probably the best cages I have EVER experienced. I love the structure, very solid. The functionality is extremely professional. And above all I thought the front covers (red pigeon eyes) were fantastic. Somebody really put a lot of thought into this one.Installation was a snap. No problems. Just slide it in, hook up the cables and you're done. Easy Peezy.The only negative point is the fan, it is a little loud, but I can live with that. It would be helpful if iStarUSA had a web site that I could order from directly or get some sort of support from. Also a parts replacement page would be helpful. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/116771659-istarusagroup-component-and-others-bpn-de340ss-red](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/116771659-istarusagroup-component-and-others-bpn-de340ss-red) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-21*
