The all-metal door latch offers stable and smooth drive ejection action and protection to the installed drive.

Full Metal Structure

To ensure enclosure reliability for many years, the TurboSwap can hold up in the harshest and roughest environments. The housing is made of a full-metal construction that is suitable for rugged-edge applications and industries that require a flammability rating.

Maximum Heat Dissipation

The open-air structure and air vents all around the device offer maximum heat dissipation. It works perfectly with your computer's cooling system and keeps your drive cool even under heavy workloads.

Optional Fan Mounting Holes

The TurboSwap MB171SP-1B includes four optional mounting holes for an 80mm cooling fan. Install a compatible cooling fan (80x80x10mm) and connect it to your power supply if extra cooling is needed.

Drive Power Button & Activity Light

The TurboSwap MB171SP-1B features an easy access drive power button that allows users to shut off the drive to reduce power and drive usage or prevent a hacker/virus attack. When a drive is fully inserted in the enclosure, the drive activity light will begin to light up and indicate the drive is powered and accessed.

Compatible hard drive caddy (tray) with tool-less drive installation design for ICY DOCK ExpressCage MB324SP-B 4 Bay 2.5" SAS/SATA HDD & SSD Hot Swap Cage for 5.25" Bay

The MB453TRAY-2B is a 2.5"/3.5" HDD/SSD tray for FatCage (MB15X), DataCage (MB45X/ MB876) series internal mobile rack cages. It is interchangeable with the multi-bay ICYCube MB561 series and the single bay ICYBento MB559 series of external hard drive enclosures.

The ToughArmor MB105VP-B is a 5.25-inch ruggedized full-metal removable dual U.2/U.3 NVMe PCIe 4.0 SSD mobile rack enclosure, supporting up to 64Gbps data transfer speeds through Slimline SAS (SFF-8654-8i) connection in a single 5.25-inch (optical drive) bay. In addition, the innovative removable drive tray design allows users to effortlessly access U.2 or U.3 drives from the front of the system.

Easy Drive Access

The MB105VP-B is equipped with two EZ Slide Mini removable full-metal drive trays supporting from 7mm to 15mm drive height, making drive maintenance a more efficient and straightforward process.

Enterprise Drive Cooling Solution

The built-in 40mm x 20mm rear cooling fan effectively blows away the heat generated by the U.2/U.3 SSDs through the intelligently placed ventilation holes within the enclosure. Depending on the intensity of the workload on the U.2/U.3 drives, the user can adjust between three fan settings: Hi, Low and Off.

The additional cooling space above the drive trays allows the cooling fan to exhaust the drive heat more efficiently to prevent the drive from overheating.

NVMe 4.0 Performance

The MB105VP-B connects 2 x U.2/U.3 SSD with only a single Slimline-SAS (SFF-8654-8i) to reduce cable clutter while offering NVMe 4.0 transfer speeds up to 64Gbps per drive bay.

Packed with Features

The Slimline-SAS and 15-pin SATA power connectors are compatible with cables that have locking latch designs. Once the cables are connected, the locking latches will secure the connections in place.

The LED status light in each drive tray gives you the drive status information at a glance. With Active Power Technology (APT), the LED lights turn on when the drive is inserted and automatically shut off when all drives are removed.

EMI Grounding Technology

Grounding your drives is essential as swapping drives without proper grounding may damage hardware due to static shocks. With our innovative EMI Grounding Technology, once the drive is screwed onto the drive tray, the drive will be in a constant grounded state throughout the tray, housing, and computer system to ensure your drives are protected from static electrical surges safe during drive swapping.

ToughArmor Protection

Ensuring the enclosure can be relied upon for many years, the ToughArmor MB105VP-B can hold up in the harshest environment. It is equipped with rugged, heavy-duty full-metal protection throughout the entire device and drive trays, making it perfect for industrial devices that may require a flammability rating, such as military, medical, in-vehicle computers, and law enforcement industries.

Tray-less designs have always been a trade-off between convenience and security, but that's not the case for TurboSwap MB171SP-B. The ICYDOCK TurboSwap MB171SP-B keeps all the benefits of the tray-less design with superior build quality, improved cooling efficiency and its unique shock absorbing design for maximum stability. It fits any standard 5.25" bay and is built rugged with all metal design to take a beating. This lockable mobile rack is designed for rugged applications such as medical & military systems, industrial PCs and servers. It includes features such as drive power button, ultra-slim 80mm cooling fan, fan speed control and optional screw holes for an add-on 120mm cooling fan which can be great for gamers and power users seeking a hot-swap bay built in to their system with SATA III support.

The benefits of tray-less combined with stability

There are many benefits to having a tray-less design; it allows you to quickly swap the drives without the fuss of rewiring or installing trays onto your drives. Reliability and stability of tray-less mechanisms are always a concern as it's necessary to add moving parts. The TurboSwap MB171SP-B takes this into consideration and allows you to hot-swap drives within seconds, while maintaining outstanding drive stability and overall reliability. The Ultra-Flex shock absorbing kit provides excellent drive support whether it's a half-height drive or a full size drive; it stabilizes the drive and absorbs vibrations. For increased reliability, we've simplified and reengineered the ejection mechanism with all metal arms to create a strong product that's built to last. Setup is incredibly simple: just insert this unit into a single 5.25" bay, secure the unit in with screws, plug a 15pin power cable + 7 pin SATA cable, and you're good to go.
