Icy Dock MB992SK-B (black)

Every year, technology becomes increasingly advanced and is constantly improving. Furthermore, being physically the smallest while performing the best is the ultimate goal of any storage system. This is why SFF (Small Form Factor) storage systems are becoming more popular due to their low power consumption and space-saving benefits. With the advent of recent solid-state technology, 2.5” SSDs can easily achieve transfer rates of 500MB/sec, overcoming 3.5” SATA hard drives in every category except capacity. Therefore, maximizing capacity within a limited space has become one of the most important tasks faced by many storage consulting firms. For SFF systems, we introduce the Icy Dock MB992SK-B 2.5" SATA Mobile Rack solution for use in 3.5" device bays (Floppy bay).

Complete Space Saver
Utilizing its small form factor, the MB992SK-B is perfect for use in industrial PCs, SMB SFF servers, mobile DVR systems, or even home servers. The ability to house 2 x SATA SSDs or HDDs in a single 3.5” bay makes it a valuable asset for tasks such as building small RAID 1 backups for SMB workstations or fast RAID 0 arrays for powerful personal computers. To prevent cable clutter, a single SATA 15-pin power connection is used to ease installation. Save as much space as possible while maintaining speed and capacity—that is the beauty of the MB992SK-B.

Protect your Investments
Ensuring that your drives are in good hands and last as long as possible is carefully considered in any enterprise build and design. The MB992SK-B is capable of holding up in the harshest environments, thanks to the heavy-duty metal construction of the entire body and its components. 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.

The metal material used facilitates heat dissipation transfer from the hard drives to the mobile rack. Multi-Flow Technology (MFT) effectively routes airflow correctly for excellent passive cooling via ventilation slots on the front, rear, top, and bottom (in multiple locations). Lastly, Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT) and EMI Grounding are used to provide a stable environment so that the hard drives or SSDs can perform at their best.

Versatile Utility & Security
To bring more utility to your hard drives, an LED is installed into the front of the mobile rack to 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 your hard drives will not eject when not needed. Additionally, the 2-segment key lock provides extra protection against the theft of hard drives as well as safeguards sensitive data.

The brand-new EZ Slide Micro trays make drive interchangeability and maintenance completely hassle-free. The trays are also designed to accommodate 7mm to 9.5mm height hard drives and SSDs, creating a 2.5" hot-swap bay for any standard SATA hard drives and SSDs. Icy Dock MB992SK-B.
