Icy Dock 3 Bay Hot Swap SATA Hard Drive Enclosure

Tuesday, September 26th, 2006 | Hard Drive Reviews, News

If you are looking to expand the number of hard drives in your computer, and you are running out of space inside this could be one of the options to turn to.

With a size that is smaller than two 5.25″ drives, and the ability to hotswap up to 3 SATA drives it gives you a nice alternative to further clogging up your computer’s insides.

It fits into the double 5.25″ slots on your computer and is cooled by a fan at the back which wicks away heat into the computer, keeping the drives inside the enclosure that little bit safer from damage.

It also comes in 4 and 5 drive versions. It requires 2 molex connectors which are the older 4 pin power connectors found on optical drives and older hard drives. This is a little strange, but for the convenience, that’s what you’ll have to put up with.

Easy to install, and you can remove a faulty of broken hard drive without turning the computer off.
