Drevskaktblænding Icy Dock MB492SKL-B

The ICY DOCK ToughArmor EX MB492SKL-B is a dual-bay 2.5" mobile rack designed for industrial small form factor systems that require secure, durable drive mounting. Constructed from heavy-duty metal, the unit fits two 2.5" drives into a single 3.5" front bay and supports 6Gbps SAS and SATA drives while remaining backwards compatible with 3Gbps devices. Removable trays and a compact low-profile design make it suitable for embedded systems, surveillance, aerospace, mobile DVRs and other space-constrained enterprise applications.

Advantages

Full-metal construction provides long-term durability and helps meet flammability requirements for industrial deployments. The removable tray design supports hot-swap for fast maintenance and minimal downtime. A dual-lock system combines a metal key lock to prevent unauthorized access with a thumb screw lock to reduce tray vibration and protect against accidental ejection. Additional features include individual activity LEDs with Active Power Technology, drive ID plugs and EMI grounding for electrical protection.

Suitable for

• Industrial small form factor PCs and embedded systems
• Surveillance and mobile DVR systems
• Automation and factory control systems
• Aerospace and mobile or field-deployed systems
• RAID configurations requiring secure removable drives

How to use

Install the MB492SKL-B into a single 3.5" front bay and insert up to two 2.5" SATA or SAS drives (7–9.5mm height) into the removable trays. Secure each tray using the thumb screw lock and, if required, engage the metal key lock to prevent unauthorized removal. Connect the system to a compatible SATA or SAS host (SAS host required for SAS drives). The removable trays enable hot-swap replacement to simplify maintenance and reduce system downtime.

Recommendations

Use the MB492SKL-B in environments where drive security and vibration resistance are important; ensure a SAS host when using SAS drives and label trays with the included drive ID plugs for clearer drive identification in multi-unit systems.
