Hi,

Have you looked at the Supermicro CSE-836E1 chassis?
http://www.supermicro.com/products/chassis/3U/836/SC836E1-R800V.cfm

It is also 3U but have space for 16 drives redundant power and the 
computer! The port expander works with the LSI MegaRAID SAS8308ELP board 
and SAS/SATA drives in FreeBSD. There is also a cheaper model available 
with 16 normal SATA connectors if you prefer that.
