M.2 NVMe mobile rack for 3.5" bay

The ICY DOCK ToughArmor MB601M2K-1B installs a single M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD into any standard external 3.5" device bay. It accepts M and B+M key drives in 2230, 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110 lengths. A full-metal enclosure provides passive cooling and meets flammability requirements.

Builders adding fast NVMe storage to a 3.5" slot

This unit suits builders who want to use an M.2 NVMe drive where only a 3.5" bay is available. The adjustable locker secures every supported length without extra brackets. Buyers who need to install more than one drive or who require a different host interface should look at other solutions.

U.2 host connection at 32 Gbps

The rack connects to the system through a single U.2 connector (SFF-8639) and delivers the full NVMe bandwidth specification of 32 Gbps. An NVMe-capable host is required for operation. Two segment keys add physical security for the installed drive.

Questions about this item

What does the 32 Gbps NVMe bandwidth mean once the drive is installed in a system?

The U.2 connector passes the full NVMe bandwidth of 32 Gbps to the host, so the M.2 SSD can run at its rated PCIe speed without bottleneck from the rack.

What interface standard does the rack use and what does it cap in practice?

It uses a U.2 connector (SFF-8639) that requires an NVMe-capable host and delivers up to 32 Gbps of NVMe bandwidth.

What physical space and mounting does this mobile rack need to fit?

It installs into any standard external 3.5" device bay or floppy bay and holds one M.2 NVMe SSD from 2230 to 22110 length with an adjustable locker.
