Description
The ToughArmor 2 x 2.5″ SATA Mobile Rack For 3.5″ Drive Bay from Icy Dock is a small form factor storage system with low power consumption and space-saving benefits. The mobile rack is used in 3.5″ drive bays (floppy bays). The ability to house two 2.5″ SATA SSDs or HDDs in a single 3.5″ drive bay make it suitable for building small RAID 1 backups for SMB workstations or fast RAID 0 arrays for powerful PCs. Utilizing its small form factor, the mobile rack is suitable for use in industrial PCs, SMB SFF servers, mobile DVR systems, or even home servers. The single SATA 15-pin power port keeps cables clutter-free and eases installation, and lets you save space while maintaining the speed and capacity.
The small form factor, mobile rack is capable of holding up in harsh environments with the heavy-duty metal construction. It can be used in various systems including military and law enforcement deployment, as well as manufacturing conditions such as embedded control systems and factory automation systems. With a full metal design, the ToughArmor is suitable for industrial and medical devices as it is considered to comply with flammability requirements. The material used offers heat dissipation transfer from hard drives to the mobile rack.
Multi-Flow Technology (MFT) effectively routes airflow correctly for passive cooling via ventilation slots on the front, rear, top, and bottom (in multiple locations).The Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT) and EMI grounding are used to provide a stable environment for hard drives or SSDs. LED indicators installed in the front of the mobile rack provide drive status information at all times. Active Power Technology (APT) allows each LED to be on only when a hard drive is inserted into the enclosure.
For drive security, the eagle-hook lock system on the tray ensures that hard drives do not eject when not needed. Additionally, the two segment key lock provides protection against theft of hard drives as well as safeguards any sensitive data. The EZ slide micro trays make drive interchangeability and maintenance hassle free. The trays are also designed to accommodate 7 to 9.5mm height hard drives and SSDs, creating a 2.5″ hot-swap bay for standard SATA hard drives and SSDs.

I am about to install this cage onto my new PC build, but just by touching around the case it is a solid cage! I love the fact that it is a metal case. Very easy to use. I would buy it again in the future! #sweepstakes

This is a great product if you have limited space and power. Use 1- 5.25 Drive Bay and then mount up to 2 – 2.5mm drives and one slimline (Laptop) dvd/blueray Drive in unit. I’ll be getting another 🙂 🙂 If the screws don’t fit then use other screws. Extra power connectors on the back if you don’t have the right one coming from your power supply.

Pros: Self contained. Doesn’t use up resources Cons: Longer than a standard 3.5 drive The drives stay loose on the trays. It looks as though the holes for the drives are slightly too wide for the screws provided. I had same issue with different screws. Product works fine as is. Other Thoughts: I’ve been installing these on our manufacturing equipment on their CPCI controllers. Only wish ICYDOCK offered a tray for CPCI setups. I’ve been making my own at a local maker space. Of the 7 I’ve installed so far, I’ve only had one bad unit. I’ll be sending it back for warranty. Still a great solution for our needs. I would like to see some indication, either via lights or the monitoring software, that the unit has finished building the new RAID array. To avoid loosing any data, I first install the SSD and power up the unit. Give it 5min to build the array. Then take out the SSDs and clone the original drives. The manual is not very specific about this.

I am very pleased with the ease of use and performance of this product. The only thing that would make it better is that if it were trayless, but I knew what it was when I bought and am extremely pleased with it.

Very solid, all metal construction. Definitely a tougher build than other removable-rack drive decks.

I was looking to build a seven SSD RAID in my HP z820 for video playback and found this 8 bay Icy Dock on B&H. I thought they only built these for 6 drives, but was psyched to find one cage to hold all of my drives. This is a sturdy metal case that holds the eight drives neatly and secure while allowing for easy access at the push of a button. The dual fans on the back provide cooling for the drives. I highly recommend this storage solution for anyone looking to mount multiple ssds
