StarTech - SATDOCK2520 - 3.5in Trayless Hot Swap SATA Mobile Rack for Dual 2.5in Hard Drives

The SATDOCK2520 3.5in SATA Mobile Rack lets you install two 2.5in SATA (SATA, SATA II, SATA III-6Gbps) hard drives (HDD) or solid state drives (SSD) into an available/unused 3.5in floppy drive bay.

The mobile rack delivers quick and easy access to hard drive contents, using a convenient "no mounting required /easy eject" feature (much like a tape cartridge or floppy disk) that eliminates the need for the drives to be installed in a tray - a time-saving solution for instant drive removals and insertions as part of a system building process or integration into rackmount systems or industrial environments.

For added security, the mobile rack is equipped with locking bay doors to prevent unauthorized removal of the swappable hard drives. Also a perfect addition for operating system image deployment and any task that requires being able to access large volumes of data on the fly, the hot swap bay provides everything you need to expedite important projects while maintaining a reliable storage solution.
