StarTech.com 2 Drive 2.5in Trayless Hot Swap SATA Mobile Rack Backplane
This 3.5in SATA hard drive hot-swap bay allows you to install two 2.5in SATA drives in an available/unused 3.5in floppy drive bay. Featuring a convenient "no mounting required /easy eject" feature (like a tape cartridge or floppy disk), the hard drive hot swap bay doesn't require that the drives be installed in a tray - making it the ideal solution for quick and easy drive removals and insertions as part of a system building process, or integration into rackmount systems or industrial environments.

Also a perfect addition for operating system image deployment and any task that requires being able to quickly access large volumes of data on the fly, the hot swap bay provides everything you need to expedite important projects while maintaining a reliable storage solution.

Features:

  • 50000 times insertion/removal cycle
  • Supports two 2.5" SATA hard drives and fits into any standard 3.5" drive bay
  • Aluminum enclosure design to help with heat dissipation
  • Driver free support and tool-less design for HD installation
  • Dual LED function: Power on, HD activity
  • Easily add two 2.5" SATA hard drives to your PC
  • Supports Hot Swapping
  • Supports SATA II and maximum data transfer rates up to 3.0 Gbps
  • Swinging latch able door makes it easy for inserting or removing hard drives

What You Should Know
What is RAID?
RAID is an acronym first defined back in 1987 to describe a redundant array of inexpensive disks, a technology that allowed computer users to achieve high levels of storage reliability from low-cost PC hard disk drives, via the technique of arranging the devices into an array for fail-safe redundancy.

"RAID" is now used as an umbrella term for computer data storage schemes that can divide and replicate data among multiple hard disk drives. The different schemes/architectures are named by the word RAID followed by a number, as in RAID 0, RAID 1, etc. RAID's various designs involve two key elements: increased data reliability or increased input/output performance. When multiple physical disks are set up to use RAID technology, they are said to be in a RAID array. This array distributes data across multiple disks, but the array is seen by the computer user and operating system as one single disk. RAID can be set up to serve several different purposes.

Organizing disks into a redundant array decreases the total usable storage capacity. For instance, a 2-disk RAID 1 array loses half of the total capacity that would have otherwise been available using both disks independently, and a RAID 5 array with several disks loses the capacity of one whole disk. Other types of RAID arrays are arranged so that they are faster to write to and read from than a single disk.

There are various combinations of these configurations giving different trade-offs and benefits of protection against data loss, capacity, and speed. RAID levels 0, 1, and 5 are the most commonly found, and cover most of the typical requirements.

  • RAID 0 (striped disks) distributes data across several disks in a way that gives improved speed at any given instant. If one disk fails, however, all of the data on the array will be lost, as there is neither parity nor mirroring.
  • RAID 1 mirrors the contents of the disks, making a 1:1 (1 to 1) ratio real-time backup. The contents of each disk in the array are identical to that of every other disk in the array.
  • RAID 3 uses a striped set with dedicated parity or bit interleaved parity or byte level parity.  This mechanism provides fault tolerance similar to RAID 5. However, because the strip across the disks is a lot smaller than a file system block, reads and writes to the array perform like a single drive with a high linear write performance. If one drive fails, the performance doesn't change.
  • RAID 5 (striped disks with parity) combines three or more disks in a way that protects against data loss of any one disk. The storage capacity of the array is reduced by the capacity of the one disk (all disks are of equal size).
  • RAID 6 (striped disks with dual parity) can recover from the loss of two disks.
  • RAID 10 (or 1+0) uses both striping and mirroring. ("01" or "0+1" is sometimes distinguished from "10" or "1+0": a striped set of mirrored subsets and a mirrored set of striped subsets are both valid, but distinct, configurations.)
