Our verdict

A compact enclosure for a home NAS built on a small board with several drives. Confirm the drive size the bays accept, since the listing names only the smaller form factor.

Overview

Home server builders get a compact aluminum enclosure sized for a small form factor board plus a set of drive bays. Cooling is air only, and Jonsbo describes a partition plate design for directing that airflow.

Storage density in a small metal box is the reason to look at it, since the bay count suits a home NAS or media server. The drive form factor field names only small laptop-class drives, so anyone planning large desktop hard disks should confirm bay fit with Jonsbo first.

Who it's for

Self-hosters storing family photos, backups or media on a small always-on box get a tidy shell for it. Builders who want a radiator or a bigger board will not find support for either here.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Compact cube footprint for a shelf
  • Six internal bays in a small case
  • Partition plate cooling design
  • Warranty runs two years from Jonsbo
Cons
  • Air cooling only
  • Listed drive size is the smaller form factor
  • CPU cooler and PSU limits not listed
  • Only one fan size given for whole case

Performance notes

Drive temperatures depend on the fan pulling air across the bay stack, so the fan curve set in the motherboard firmware governs how warm disks run during long transfers. The aluminum shell spreads some heat, but with air as the only listed cooling method, a hot processor and full bays share the same airflow.
