I have a Navepoint server cabinet. It only holds a server up to about 22" long.

I'm looking for a 3U or 4U with at least 16 hot swappable bays that is 22" long or shorter. I'm having difficulty finding anything. Not sure if I'm just looking in the wrong spots or what.

Any info would be great.
 
I don't think you'll find anything under 25 inches deep if you want 16+ hot swaps with the server also inside. 25.5 - 32 inches is the standard. Almost every chassis I have seen has to have at least 12" for the hot swap section (drives, backplane and cable routing), then another 14"+ for the motherboard and power supply section. What you could do is build a short depth host server, and do a short depth 3u/4u 16-24 hot swap expansion chassis.

Sans Digital AccuSTOR has a 16 hot swap model that is 21" deep. They also have an AccuSTOR 24 hot swap in the same depth.
