## Long description

The StarTech.com S25SLOTR Removable Hard Drive Bay installs into an available full-profile PCI expansion slot to provide rear-panel access to a 2.5" SATA hard drive or SSD. This trayless mobile rack accepts a bare 2.5" SATA drive without the need for a drive tray, allowing simple hot-swap insertion and removal from the computer chassis. The unit supports SATA III transfer rates up to 6 Gbps when paired with a compatible controller and features a vented aluminum/steel housing in a black finish.
Advantages
This removable hard drive bay uses an available expansion card slot to add a 2.5" SATA hot-swappable drive bay without internal drive mounting. The trayless design reduces installation time and simplifies drive swaps via a rear-panel access door and eject button. The vented aluminum/steel construction improves airflow and durability, and the rack is rated for 50,000+ insertions to ensure long-term reliability. When combined with SATA III drives and controllers, the backplane supports transfer speeds up to 6 Gbps.
Suitable for
Data backup and quick drive cloning
Temporary storage or transfer of 2.5" SATA drives
IT maintenance, diagnostics and drive imaging

For frequent swapping, verify the expansion slot and chassis provide sufficient support and grounding; handle drives carefully and avoid excessive force when inserting or ejecting to maintain the 50,000+ insertion reliability.
