2.5-Inch Drive to 3.5-Inch Bay

This tray-less mobile rack converts a single external 3.5-inch bay into a hot-swap slot for one 2.5-inch SATA or SAS drive. The full-metal chassis and ABS plastic frame protect the drive while supporting thicknesses from 5 to 15 millimetres. Installation requires only the four included screws and no separate carrier tray.

Suits Front-Access Hot-Swap Builds.

Builders who need tool-less drive changes at the front panel will benefit from the hot-swap SATA and SAS support. Systems without an external 3.5-inch bay or users who prefer permanent internal mounting should consider other mounting methods.

SATA I/II/III and SAS Interface at 6 Gigabits per

The rack passes through SATA revision I, II and III as well as SAS signals, delivering up to 6 gigabits per second transfer rates depending on the installed drive. This interface support is the decisive factor when matching the rack to a controller or backplane.

Questions about this item

Does the MB521SP-B include everything needed to mount a 2.5" drive, or must I buy extra screws or a tray?

The package contains the device, a user manual and four screws, so no additional mounting hardware is required.

My drive is 15 mm thick; will it fit in this single-bay mobile rack?

Yes, the rack accepts 2.5" SAS or SATA drives from 5 mm up to 15 mm in height.

What does the 6 Gb/s transfer-rate spec mean for actual SSD performance inside my PC?

The interface supports SATA III at up to 6 Gb/s; real-world speed will match the drive's own SATA limit.
