## Long description

The ICY BOX IB-174SSK-U is a storage drive tray designed to fit into a 5.25" bay. It accepts one 3.5" and one 2.5" HDD or SSD, provides independent SATA connections for both drives and includes SATA cables and two lock keys. The unit is made of aluminium with a black finish and measures 145×195×40 mm with a weight of 0.507 kg, making it suitable for installation in desktop PCs, servers or NAS enclosures.
Advantages
This tray supports both 3.5" and 2.5" drives simultaneously, each with its own SATA connection allowing independent operation. The trayless design and hot-swap capability speed up drive replacement, while built-in locks and included keys provide physical security for installed drives. The aluminium construction keeps the unit lightweight yet durable.
Suitable for
Installing one 3.5" HDD and one 2.5" HDD/SSD in a 5.25" bay
Desktop PCs where additional internal storage or mixed drive sizes are needed
Servers or small NAS enclosures that accept 5.25" bay accessories
When it may not be suitable
This tray requires an available 5.25" bay and internal SATA connections; it is not suitable for systems without a free 5.25" slot or without spare SATA ports. It also does not include drive-specific cooling beyond the aluminium housing, so systems with heavy sustained I/O may require additional airflow or active cooling.
Key specifications
Drive bays supported: 1 × 3.5" + 1 × 2.5" (HDD/SSD)
Interface: SATA, up to 6 Gbit/s per connection
Form factor: fits standard 5.25" drive bay
Material: aluminium
Colour: black
Dimensions: 145 × 195 × 40 mm
Weight: 0.507 kg
Includes: SATA cables and two lock keys
How to use
Install the tray into an empty 5.25" bay and secure it according to your chassis instructions. Mount one 3.5" and/or one 2.5" drive into the respective slots, connect each drive to the motherboard or controller using the supplied SATA cables, and connect power from the PSU. Use the locks to secure drives if needed. The tray supports hot-swap operation so drives can be exchanged without powering down the system if the host controller and operating system support hot swapping.
What to consider before purchase
Availability of a free 5.25" bay in your chassis
Spare internal SATA data and power connectors on your motherboard or PSU
Cooling and airflow in your case for the installed drives
Need for hot-swap support from your SATA controller and OS
Usage recommendations
For reliable operation, mount the tray in a chassis with adequate airflow, use quality SATA cables and ensure your SATA controller supports hot-swap if you plan to change drives while the system is running. Lock the drives when physical security is required.
