Drive cages mount multiple drives in server or PC cases. Match cage form factor to case drive bays, verify hot-swap support if needed, and ensure adequate airflow for drive cooling.
Metal drive cages last 10–15 years and often outlive multiple generations of drives and cases. Hot-swap mechanisms are the most likely failure point in heavily used configurations.
