Chassis
What distinguishes the R4/R6/R8 chassis designs?
Shuttle provides three chassis designs for their XPC cube series: R4, R6 and R8. While R4/R6 supports two hard disks and one optical drive, the R8 can support up to four hard disks. In addition, the R6 has one open 3.5“ bay, which can also be used for a card reader.
