Drive Bay Conversion
The StarTech HSB1SATSASBA converts a 5.25-inch front bay into a hot-swap slot for a single 3.5-inch SATA or SAS drive. It is built for system administrators and builders who need quick drive changes without opening the chassis.
Build Integration
The unit mounts in a standard 5.25-inch bay and connects through a 22-pin SATA data and power combo to the host and a 29-pin SAS SFF-8482 connector to the drive. Its trayless design removes the need for a separate carrier and frees internal space for airflow or additional components.
Thermals and Power
An aluminium vented body passively dissipates drive heat while the lockable door secures the drive during operation. Power is drawn directly from the host SATA connection so no extra power cables are required for normal use.

Questions about this item
Does the SATA 6 Gbps interface limit sustained transfer rates with fast 3.5" drives?
The backplane supports SATA I/II/III up to 6 Gbps, so the host SATA link is the first throughput ceiling under sustained use.
How much heat builds up in the aluminum tray during all-day operation?
The vented aluminum body passively dissipates drive heat; no fan is included, so case airflow determines the steady-state temperature.
What host connection must my system already provide for this bay to work?
A free 22-pin SATA data-and-power combo header on the motherboard or controller is required to connect the supplied SATA cable.
