4-Bay 3.5" SATA III NON-RAID Enclosure

The Syba SY-ENC50104 is a four-bay external enclosure built for 3.5-inch SATA I, II and III hard drives. It connects to a host via USB 3.0 Type-B or eSATA and uses a port-multiplier mode to present each installed drive individually to the operating system. An adjustable fan with low, high and auto settings provides forced-air cooling across all bays. Power is delivered through a direct DC connection without a separate AC adapter.

Suits users who want independent drive access

This unit is aimed at users who need to connect up to four separate SATA drives simultaneously for data transport, backup or archiving. Each bay accepts drives up to 18TB. It is not a RAID controller, so builders who require hardware RAID 0, 1, 5 or 10 should look at a dedicated RAID enclosure or a host-based software solution. The enclosure also lacks wireless connectivity and does not support 2.5-inch drives without a separate adapter.

Port-multiplier mode over USB 3.0 and eSATA

The defining specification is the port-multiplier implementation that exposes four drives over a single USB 3.0 or eSATA link. This decides whether the enclosure matches a workflow that relies on seeing each drive as a distinct block device without RAID abstraction. The package includes an eSATA cable, a USB cable, a power cable, sixteen mounting screws and a screwdriver for installation.

Questions about this item

How loud does the adjustable fan run when the enclosure operates continuously?

The enclosure includes an adjustable cooling fan with low, high and auto speed settings; the forced-convection design moves air across all four drives to keep temperatures stable during all-day operation.

Which cables and host ports do I need to connect this enclosure to my computer?

The box supplies one USB 3.0 Type-B cable and one eSATA cable; your host must provide a USB 3.0 Type-A port or an eSATA port to use either interface.

Will my existing 3.5" SATA drives work in this four-bay unit without RAID?

Yes — each bay accepts any 3.5" SATA I, II or III hard drive up to 18 TB per drive and the non-RAID, port-multiplier mode presents all four drives independently to the host.
