8-Bay 2.5" SAS/SATA Mobile Rack

The LORDWORLD ExpressCage MB038SP-B fits eight 2.5-inch SAS or SATA hard drives or solid-state drives into one standard 5.25-inch front bay. It supports SATA 3.0 at 6 Gbps and SAS 3.0 at 12 Gbps over a single channel.

Server and workstation builders needing dense

This unit suits administrators who want tool-less drive changes and support for both 5 mm and 7 mm drive heights. Builders requiring 3.5-inch drive bays or more than eight simultaneous drives should consider alternative enclosures.

Single-channel 12 Gbps SAS interface

The backplane connects all eight trays through one SAS 3.0 link, so total bandwidth is shared across every installed drive. Verify that your controller can address eight targets on a single port before purchasing.

Questions about this item

Will the 8-bay ExpressCage MB038SP-B work with my existing SATA 3.0 6Gbps controller?

Yes, it supports SATA 3.0 6Gbps and SAS 3.0 12Gbps on a single channel, so your current SATA controller will run each 2.5" drive at up to 6Gbps.

How can I verify the rack is operating correctly once installed in a 5.25" bay?

Insert drives into the removable trays; the system should detect all eight bays at SATA 3.0 6Gbps or SAS 3.0 12Gbps speeds, and hot-swap removal should not interrupt the remaining drives.

Does the MB038SP-B include the eight drive trays, or must I buy them separately?

The removable drive tray system is part of the unit, so all eight trays for 2.5" 5mm and 7mm drives are supplied; no extra tray purchase is required.
