InterTech Server 4U-4098-S 4U 19" Black Case

InterTech Server 4U-4098-S is a 4U 19" case in black, aimed at more serious builds – from home servers and NAS to laboratory and office solutions. Although it is in rack format, it internally supports standard motherboards ATX, Micro ATX, and Mini ITX, giving you freedom in hardware selection. You have space for up to 290 mm graphics card and 130 mm CPU cooler, so you won't be limited to just the most budget components. The case comes without a power supply and without included fans, which is a plus if you want to choose the cooling and PSU according to the load.

What you get

The main focus here is the disk space – a total of 5 x 3.5" and 6 x 2.5" slots, making it a very good base for NAS, backup server, or video surveillance system. The five 5.25" slots on the front panel allow for the addition of hot-swap cages, optical drives, or additional panels with buttons, controllers, etc. With 7 expansion slots, you can combine several cards – GPU, RAID controller, network cards – without feeling limited if you use an ATX board. Support for up to 2 x 80 mm fans gives you basic control over airflow, and the lack of a window and lighting is a plus if your priority is functionality and a discreet appearance. The front panel with 2 x USB 2.0 ports is convenient for flash drives, service access, or peripherals without having to reach behind the rack.

• Case type 4U 19", suitable for mounting in a standard rack, but with an internal layout for mass PC components.
• Support for motherboards ATX, Micro ATX, and Mini ITX, allowing flexible platform selection – from mini server to more serious configuration.
• Total 5 x 3.5" and 6 x 2.5" storage slots, sufficient for a serious array of HDD/SSD in a NAS or backup system.
• 5 x 5.25" slots on the front panel that you can use for hot-swap cages, optical drives, or control panels.
• 7 expansion slots, allowing for several cards – GPU, RAID, additional LAN ports, and other PCIe solutions.
• Support for up to 2 x 80 mm fans for basic cooling of the configuration according to load needs.
• Maximum graphics card length 290 mm and CPU cooler height 130 mm, allowing the use of quite a few standard components.
• Comes without a power supply, so you choose the PSU according to the consumption and reliability you need.

Who it is suitable for

This case is suitable if you want a rack-mounted home or office server, NAS with many drives, or a backup and service machine that fits into an existing cabinet. It is also suitable for simpler server gaming/streaming configurations, as long as you consider the limits for cooler height and graphics card length. It is not a good choice if you are looking for a show build with a window, RGB, and massive air or water cooling.

The most sensible thing about InterTech Server 4U-4098-S is the combination of rack form factor with support for standard ATX components and a serious number of disk slots. If you need a practical, no-frills case for a server role, you get exactly that here.
