This is a Norco DS-600s, a really nice rackmount case which has been
discontinued by Norco... Unfortunately Norco doesn't have any sort of
enduser support and that case was mostly sold as a security DVR
enclosure to OEMs so I have not been able to find anything on it.
Unless there's some easy way to figure out what the backplane is doing
I'll just put up with it. It's rock solid but it's kind of annoying to
have all those drives and no blinkie-lights. :-)
