About this item
Seagate Exos CORVAULT 4U106 JBOD Storage Enclosure
The Seagate Exos CORVAULT 4U106 is an ultra-high-density enterprise SAS JBOD expansion enclosure designed for large-scale storage capacity growth in data center environments. Unlike iSCSI or controller-based storage arrays, this unit operates as a direct-attached SAS expansion shelf, relying on external servers or RAID/HBA controllers for storage management. With 106 hot-swappable 3.5" bays in a 4U chassis, it delivers among the highest drive densities available per rack unit. Requires a SAS HBA or RAID controller and 200-240V high-line power. Not compatible with desktop PCs.
Highlights
- Ultra-Dense 4U Chassis: Houses 106 hot-swappable 3.5" drive bays in a 4U rackmount form factor, delivering exceptional high-density enterprise storage expansion for data center environments.
- 12Gb/s SAS Expansion Architecture: Equipped with Dual SAS I/O Modules (IOMs), providing high-speed external SAS connectivity via host HBA or RAID controller with dual-path redundancy and failover support.
- Carrier-Grade Redundancy: Features dual SAS I/O Modules (IOMs), redundant 2000W hot-swappable Platinum-rated power supplies, and hot-swappable cooling modules and expander cards to ensure continuous operation with no single point of failure.
- Advanced Enclosure Management: Supports SES (SCSI Enclosure Services) for real-time health monitoring, including temperature, power status, and drive activity visibility through the connected host system.
- Enterprise Serviceability: Hard drives, I/O modules, cooling modules, power supplies, and expander cards are all hot-swappable, enabling maintenance without taking the enclosure offline.
Applications
- Enterprise Data Centers: Ultra-high-density SAS storage expansion for server environments
- Backup & Archival: Reliable long-term storage for backups and data retention
- Big Data & Analytics: Scalable storage for large datasets and processing workloads
- Media & Surveillance Storage: High-capacity storage for video production and security systems
- Cold Storage & Data Lakes: Cost-efficient bulk capacity for infrequently accessed data

We test every storage expansion system before you do.
Every storage expansion system Server Part Deals sells passes an internal 4-stage testing protocol before it ships. While many resellers stop at a basic power-on check, we validate drive-bay connectivity, controller communication, power delivery, cooling, and sustained data transfer. Each system is tested to confirm reliable operation and compatibility with its listed specifications.
Stage 1: Physical Inspection
- Chassis and structural inspection
- Drive-bay and caddy alignment check
- Data, power, and management-port inspection
- Fan, cable, and power-supply inspection
Stage 2: Hardware Validation
- Backplane and controller detection
- Drive-bay connectivity verification
- Expansion-module and firmware review
- Fan and power-supply status check
Stage 3: Performance Testing
- Multi-drive read/write cycles
- Interface and link-speed validation
- Concurrent bay-load testing
- Sustained throughput benchmarking
Stage 4: Stability & Connectivity Testing
- Full-bay connectivity scan
- Link-error and disconnect monitoring
- Temperature and airflow verification
- Final configuration and inventory check
