The Silent Brick Max is a non-portable Silent Brick in the form factor of a 19" rack with a height unit. The Silent Brick Max also includes twelve hard drives, but in the 3.5-inch form factor. Due to the larger hard drives, the Silent Brick Max offers significantly more capacity than a single Silent Brick.

The Silent Brick Max behaves like a Silent Brick but can only be operated with the Silent Brick Controller. The connection is made via SAS.

A mixed operation of Silent Bricks and Silent Brick Max is possible within a system, but not within a SNAS or SNAS ERC volume.
