Industrial Rackmount Chassis / D-300

3U Compact Stylish Industrial Rackmount Chassis

A 3U rackmount platform with seven full-length expansion slots and four 5.25" bays — engineered for expansion-heavy industrial systems and OEM/ODM appliances.

Product Overview

What the D-300 is built for.

The D-300 is a 3U industrial rackmount chassis in the D Storm platform, designed for systems that need expansion capacity rather than raw drive density. Seven slots accept full-length add-on cards — frame grabbers, motion controllers, GPUs, and network cards — while four 5.25" bays accept optional BPU hot-swap cages for RAID storage. It supports both 1U and 2U power supplies, with PSU lengths up to 250mm when front cages are installed. The patented lockable aluminum bezel, washable air filter, and front USB 3.0 keep it serviceable in the field, and an optional aluminum body (D-300A) reduces weight while improving thermal performance.

Order the D-300 with its published specifications. Ideal when you need a proven configuration, immediate quotation, and comparable datasheets against other models.

  • Published specifications and datasheets
  • Standard configuration, ready to quote
  • Compatible with existing integrations

Option B

Use as Customizable Platform

Start with the D-300 and adapt it for OEM/ODM, Design-In, mechanical modification, or long-term supply programs. Our engineering team supports the full customization scope.
