the_larizzo Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 (edited) I was looking at buying a sas9201-8i off ebay but the cheapest ones all have low-profile brackets. Are all PCI card brackets the same screw placement? Can I just take one off a card I have at home and put it on? Edited March 9, 2018 by the_larizzo Quote Link to comment
S80_UK Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 There's no fixed standard for the board fixing of the bracket. It very much depends on the card manufacturer and whether there are any connection going through the bracket with other conenctors. You might get lucky with a spare card, but even if the distance between the fixings is correct, they could be inset from the edge by a different amount, or offset upwards or downwards. In either case the card would then not fit properly in your chassis. 1 Quote Link to comment
