Supermicro CSE-101F

Supermicro CSE-101F is a compact mini-tower chassis engineered for space-constrained, small-form-factor systems. It is suitable for technical environments that require a minimal footprint while maintaining server-grade reliability.

The enclosure is optimized for 2.5" storage and low-power platforms, making it a solid base for embedded, edge or dedicated appliance-type builds.

• Form factor: Compact Mini-Tower for small-footprint installations such as edge nodes, gateways or dedicated appliances.
• Drive support: One internal bay for 2.5" drives, enabling the integration of SSD or HDD depending on performance and endurance requirements.
• Drive bay type: Native support for 2.5" media simplifies cabling and thermal design in compact builds.
• Power configuration: Non-redundant power design, suitable for single-PSU scenarios where simplicity and efficiency are preferred.
• Optional PSU power: Support for an optional 84W power supply, appropriate for low-power platforms and embedded-class components.
• Warranty: 36-month manufacturer warranty provides long-term coverage and predictable lifecycle planning.

Implementation benefits

• Space efficiency: The compact mini-tower format allows deployment in locations with limited rack or desktop space.
• Thermal and cabling simplicity: Single 2.5" bay and non-redundant PSU design reduce internal complexity, supporting stable thermal behavior and straightforward cable routing.
• Flexible use cases: Suitable as a platform base for edge computing, security appliances, monitoring nodes, or dedicated application servers where low power draw and small size are key.
• Lifecycle stability: The 3-year warranty supports long-term projects and industrial or OEM-style deployments.

This chassis is intended for users who need a technically straightforward, compact enclosure with 2.5" drive support and optional 84W power, without the overhead of redundant power systems.
