SWEET!!!
- Pros: Affordable, Trayless, Cooling fans.
- Cons: each port ties up a molex connector.
- Other Thoughts: Could have been designed better by building in the connections for the front display activity lights and using sata power connectors instead of 4 molex's.
Good except for Fans
- Pros: The mechanics for the adding/removing the drives works well. Feels solid on this
Good Price
Has been reliable so far, no problems with dodgy bootup because of failed connectors etc, have had this before with removable drive bay setups.
- Cons: Fans are cheap and failed within in a week.
The unit gets very noisy when they fail, definitly replace the fans, and it should be a good unit
follwup
- Pros: convenience, price
- Cons: After less than 4 months, both fans in the first unit i purchased have failed. As indicated by other users, they start sounding like a struggling blender. I was able to visually see the fan rotating off axis, as if a bearing has become dislodged. So far no response from startech support. I will replace the fans this time, but next time, the entire unit will be scrapped.
- Other Thoughts: good idea, poor execution

Works with both PC and Mac computers with standard available 5.25" drive bay
This 4 Bay SATA Mobile Rack lets you swap between 3.5in Serial ATA (SATA, SATA II) hard drives in seconds.
A time saving storage solution, the mobile rack offers four trayless SATA hard drive bays, allowing you to hot swap Serial ATA hard drives but avoid having to mount the drives to trays for deployment or unfasten them for replacement.
Supporting up to four hard drives, each at up to Terabyte (1TB) capacity, the mobile SATA hot swap rack offers a total capacity of 4TB and takes up only three 5.25in drive bays inside a host computer - maximizing space-efficiency within the computer.
Using Terabyte hard drives? Don’t expose your Hard Drive and valuable data to unnecessary heat!
The HSB430SATBK has two built-in 40mm fans that re-distribute the heat build-up generated as a result of typical drive operation. This feature is especially important for larger volume storage (750GB, 1TB hard drives), and faster “spinning"" drives (i.e 7200 RPM), as it can help optimize drive operability and in turn preserve stored data integrity. |
