Four-bay 2.5in SATA/SAS mobile rack

The StarTech.com SATSASBP425 fits four 2.5in SAS or SATA drives into a single 5.25in bay. Removable trays with a key lock enable hot-swap operation for quick drive changes. Two 40 mm sleeve-bearing fans provide active cooling for the installed drives. The unit supports drive thicknesses from 5 mm to 15 mm.

Suited for hot-swap SAS/SATA arrays

This backplane suits builders who want removable 2.5in drives in a standard 5.25in slot with hardware RAID or software arrays. The 50,000-plus insertion rating and metal housing support frequent swaps for backup or drive-sharing workflows. Systems that require more than four drive bays or a different drive form factor will need another solution. Builds without a 5.25in bay cannot install this unit.

SATA and SAS 6 Gbps interface

The backplane connects each tray through SATA I, II, III and SAS interfaces at up to 6 Gbps. This single specification determines whether the host controller and drives can communicate at full speed. Compatibility with 5 mm to 15 mm drives covers most 2.5in SSDs and HDDs including the Samsung 840 EVO.

Questions about this item

Will the SATSASBP425 fit into the 5.25in bay on my older desktop case?

Yes, the unit mounts in a single 5.25in bay and accepts four 2.5in SATA or SAS drives up to 15mm thick, so existing drives you already own will install without adapters.

How can I verify the SATSASBP425 is operating correctly once installed?

The two 40mm sleeve-bearing fans should spin up immediately, the tray key locks will engage with a click, and each drive appears in BIOS or OS disk management at full SATA III or SAS II 6 Gbps link speed.

What comes with the SATSASBP425 and what must I supply?

The package includes the backplane, four lockable removable trays, mounting hardware and two pre-installed 40mm fans; you provide the 2.5in SATA or SAS drives and the host SATA or SAS cables.
