PCI-Slot 2.5" SATA Mobile Rack

The Syba SY-MRA25023 mounts a single 2.5-inch SATA hard drive or SSD into a rear-panel PCI slot. It supports SATA I, II and III interfaces for drives up to 6 Gbps transfer speed. The aluminium enclosure fits systems where internal drive bays are unavailable or inconvenient.

Build Quality and Day-to-Day Use

An aluminium case with satin finish houses the drive without a separate tray. A patented NSS connector enables hot-swapping without scratching contacts, while a triangular lock secures the drive during operation. Tool-free insertion and ejection let you swap drives by hand, and an activity LED shows drive status at a glance.

Check Your Setup Before Ordering

You need a free PCI expansion slot on the motherboard and an accessible rear-panel opening. The package includes an 18-inch SATA data cable and a Y-power adapter that converts Molex and floppy connectors to SATA power. Verify your operating system appears in the supported list — Windows 98SE through Windows 7 and Mac OS 10.1 or later — and ensure your SATA controller can deliver the desired transfer rate.

It occupies one rear PCI bracket slot and measures 6 x 5 x 1 inch, mounting directly to the case chassis with the supplied screws.

Slide the 2.5 inch drive into the rack until the patented NSS connector engages, then close the triangular lock to secure it; the lock step is often missed.
