The SilverStone SST-WS380-E is a professional workstation chassis designed for data-intensive applications, high-performance computing, storage servers, and NAS environments. Its combination of extensive drive capacity, workstation-class component compatibility, robust cooling support, and secure construction makes it an ideal foundation for powerful, reliable systems.
Eight front-accessible hot-swappable drive trays support both 2.5-inch and 3.5-inch SAS or SATA SSDs and hard drives. The integrated backplane uses two 12Gb/s Mini-SAS HD SFF-8643 connections and supports SGPIO monitoring, providing fast, stable, and easily manageable storage connectivity.

With support for motherboards up to SSI-EEB and Extended ATX, the WS380-E can accommodate demanding workstation and server configurations. Eight PCI expansion slots and support for graphics or interface cards up to 370mm in length make it suitable for multi-GPU systems, RAID controllers, high-speed networking cards, and other professional hardware.
Cooling performance is supported by three included 120mm internal fans and two included 80mm rear fans. The chassis also accommodates 120mm, 240mm, or 360mm liquid-cooling radiators, helping maintain reliable operating temperatures during sustained workloads.
For flexible power configurations, the WS380-E supports both standard PS2 ATX power supplies and 2U redundant power supplies. Two external 5.25-inch bays and one external 3.5-inch bay provide additional installation options for optical drives, control panels, storage devices, or other accessories.
A lockable front door helps protect the hot-swappable storage bays from unauthorized access. Convenient front connectivity includes one USB Type-C port, two USB 3.0 ports, dedicated audio connections, system controls, and comprehensive status indicators.
