The 5.25 bay has been a long standard in computer history. It started from the 90s legacy industrial PC cases all the way to todays Micro ATX cases. The 5.25 bay has been widely used for optical drives such as DVD and Blue-ray, or with even a single 3.5 hard drive with mobile rack. However, it is almost impossible to use a single 5.25 drive bay to create complex RAID storage until the MB996SP-6SB Rugged Full Metal 6 x 2.5 SATA Hard Drive & SSD Backplane. This is a device commercially designed for: Medical & Military systems, Media servers, IPCs, HTPC, and All-In-One computers, approved & used by Tier 1 companies.
Utilizing the standard 5.25 bay form factor, the compact design allows the enclosure to be used in various applications, catering to a wide audience. The MB996SP-6SB excels for use in advanced RAID applications such as building dual RAID 5 arrays or high performance 4 drives in RAID 0 plus RAID 1 array for back up, all in a single external 5.25 bay. The MB996SP-6SB is extremely useful for powerful small servers, gaming rigs, home servers or HTPCs due to its high capacity and space saving design. It is also perfect for users who needs non-RAID JBOD storage and save different contents in different drive locations. It supports wide-range of applications which is the true value of the MB996SP-6SB.
Making sure your drives or expensive SSDs are in good hands and last as much as possible is carefully considered to any build and design. The MB996SP-6SB is capable of holding up in the various environments, with the rugged heavy duty full metal construction in the entirety of the body and its smaller components. The ToughArmor’s rugged full metal design is also perfect for industrial and medical devices that may require a flammability rating as the full metal material is considered to be already compliant with flammability requirements.
The metal material used grants heat dissipation transfer from the hard drives to the backplane cage. Lastly, Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT) and EMI grounding are used to ensure a stable environment for the hard drives or SSDs used, dramatically improving reliability.
Bringing more utility your hard drives or SSDs, LEDs are installed into the front of the mobile rack to provide individual drive status information at all times. Active Power Technology (APT) allows each LED and the cooling fan to be active only when a hard drive is inserted into the same bay of the enclosure.
A 40mm cooling fan is placed directly at the center of the rear panel, providing equivalent airflow throughout the entire cage. Depending on your needs, you may need the fan to be at a higher speed, or completely off for silent operation, and so a 3-Mode Fan Speed Control has been added to flexible in various situations.
