## Overview

The Icy Dock MB996SP-6SB is a premium 6-in-1 SATA hot swap backplane cage designed to fit six 2.5” SATA SSDs or HDDs within a single 5.25” bay. Engineered for high-performance RAID applications, it features full metal construction with anti-vibration technology, active power management for energy efficiency, and customizable 3-mode fan speed control. Its secure eagle-hook locking trays and versatile power adapters make it ideal for professional-grade servers, gaming rigs, and compact storage solutions.

## Description

The 5.25” device bay has been a long standard in computer history. It started from the 90s legacy industrial PC cases all the way to today’s Micro ATX cases. The 5.25” bay has been widely used for optical drives such as DVD and Blue-ray, or with even a single 3.5” hard drive with mobile rack. However, it is almost impossible to use a single 5.25” bay to create complex RAID storage until the MB996SP-6SB Full Metal 6 x 2.5” SATA Hard Drive & SSD Backplane. High Capacity RAID Storage in Limited Space Utilizing the standard 5.25” bay form factor, the compact design allows the enclosure to be used in various applications, catering to a wide audience. The MB996SP-6SB excels for use in advanced RAID applications such as building dual RAID 5 arrays or high performance 4 drives in RAID 0 plus RAID 1 array for back up, all in a single 5.25” device bay. The MB996SP-6SB is extremely useful for powerful small servers, gaming rigs, home servers or HTPC’s due to its high capacity and space saving design. It is also perfect for users who needs non-RAID JBOD storage and save different contents in different drive locations. It supports wide-range of applications which is the true value of the MB996SP-6SB. Rock Solid Construction Making sure your drives or expensive SSDs are in good hands and last as much as possible is carefully considered to any build and design. The MB996SP-6SB is capable of holding up in the various environments, with the heavy duty full metal construction in the entirety of the body and its smaller components. The metal material used grants heat dissipation transfer from the hard drives to the backplane cage. Lastly, Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT) and EMI grounding are used to ensure a stable environment for the hard drives or SSD’s used, dramatically improving reliability. Absolute Control of your 2.5” hard drive or SSD Bringing more utility your hard drives or SSDs, LED’s are installed into the front of the mobile rack to provide individual drive status information at all times. Active Power Technology (APT) allows each LED and the cooling fan to be active only when a hard drive is inserted into the same bay of the enclosure. A 40mm cooling fan is placed directly at the center of the rear panel, providing equivalent airflow throughout the entire cage. Depending on your needs, you may need the fan to be at a higher speed, or completely off for silent operation, and so a 3-Mode Fan Speed Control has been added to flexible in various situations. Using the EZ Slide Micro trays makes drive interchangeability and maintenance completely hassle free. For drive security, the Eagle-hook lock system on the tray makes sure your hard drives will not eject when not needed. The trays are also designed to accommodate 7mm to 9.5mm height hard drive and SSD, creating a 2.5" hot swap bay for any standard SATA hard drives and SSDs. Interchangeable hard drive tray with: With various systems to accommodate, dual 4-pin to 15-pin power adapters are included to fully accommodate all users.

Review: I bought 4 of these for use in my servers and I have had no issues with them at all in the over a year that I have been using them.
Review: Die Backplane bietet auf engsten Raum Platz für 6 Stück 2,5 Platten. Die Verarbeitung ist ausgezeichnet, Anschlüsse sind frei zugänglich. Das einzige was mir nich so gut gefällt ist der angeflanschte Lüfter aber das ist nur Kosmetik.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by C***H on 17 April 2020*

The product works very well and protects the hard drives when swapping them out. The drive cages offer great physical protection and hides the rear drive connectors preventing the possibility of electrostatic discharge from careless fingers. The locking mechanism is sturdy, precise and reliable. I assume you could swap in and out the drive many thousands of times without any problems. The only issue is the loud noise from the fans and high air throughput. The loud noise is extremely distracting in a home environment and will dominate. Also, the air throughput rate is large and will cause dust build up after a few months. The product is intended for an enterprise environment in a closed room. However, there is a workaround - you can easily disconnect and remove both fans to make this silent, and my SSDs have never gone above 35C even under heavy work load. This will obviously void your warranty and is done at your own risk, but after a year I couldn't take the noise anymore. Another option would be to replace the fans with silent ones purchased online.
