Six-bay 2.5" SAS/SATA rack for 5.25" bay

The ICY DOCK ToughArmor MB608SP-B fits six 2.5" SAS or SATA drives from 5 mm to 9.5 mm height into one external 5.25" bay. It is built for medical, military, media-server, HPC and industrial PC installations. The full steel chassis meets Tier 1 durability requirements. Removable EZ Slide Micro trays simplify drive maintenance.

Locking SATA cables and three-mode 40 mm fan

Each bay uses a 15-pin SATA power connector and SATA data cable with a locking latch to reduce cable clutter and secure connections. A single 40 mm fan offers three speed modes: off or low for SSDs and high for mechanical drives. This adjusts airflow to the workload without extra controllers.

Single-channel SAS 3.0 12 Gbps

The backplane supports SAS 3.0 at 12 Gbps and SATA 3.0 at 6 Gbps on a single channel. Total throughput is shared across all six bays, so simultaneous heavy I/O on every drive will saturate the link. Systems needing full bandwidth per drive require a multi-channel controller or separate enclosures.

Questions about this item

Will the 40 mm fan need replacement after long-term use?

The single 40 mm fan is built into the full-metal chassis and runs in three modes; if it ever fails you can swap it using standard 40 mm mounting points.

What throughput ceiling appears first when all six bays run SAS 3.0 12Gbps drives continuously?

Each bay connects through a single SAS 3.0 12Gbps channel, so the shared backplane link becomes the bottleneck before individual drive limits.

How loud and hot does the unit get when the fan runs on high for mechanical drives all day?

On high speed the 40 mm fan moves enough air for six spinning drives; the steel body dissipates heat, and noise stays at typical rack-enclosure levels.
