Marketing Information

The TurboSwap MB171SP-1B is a rugged full metal single bay 3.5" SAS/SATA trayless hard drive enclosure designed to fit any 5.25-in optical drive bay of the PC cases. This enclosure features a tray-less and tool-less drive installation design for quickly swap out drives without opening the computer case or using tools. The TurboSwap MB171SP-1B has an individual drive power button and is equipped with a heavy-duty metal door latch for the best drive protection.

Tool-less Drive Installation with Hot Swap Support

The TurboSwap is equipped with our proven tray-less technology - no screws, tools, or trays are necessary to insert or eject the drive. Simply insert the 3.5" SAS or SATA hard drive into the drive bay, close the door and ready to access the drive. When finished, open the door to eject the drive. The all-metal door latch offers stable and smooth drive ejection action and protection to the installed drive.

Full Metal Structure

To ensure enclosure reliability for many years, the TurboSwap can hold up in the harshest and roughest environments. The housing is made of a full-metal construction that is suitable for rugged-edge applications and industries that require a flammability rating.

Maximum Heat Dissipation

The open-air structure and air vents all around the device offer maximum heat dissipation. It works perfectly with your computer's cooling system and keeps your drive cool even under heavy workloads.

Optional Fan Mounting Holes

The TurboSwap MB171SP-1B includes four optional mounting holes for an 80mm cooling fan. Install a compatible cooling fan (80x80x10mm) and connect it to your power supply if extra cooling is needed.

Drive Power Button & Activity Light

The TurboSwap MB171SP-1B features an easy access drive power button that allows users to shut off the drive to reduce power and drive usage or prevent a hacker/virus attack. When a drive is fully inserted in the enclosure, the drive activity light will begin to light up and indicate the drive is powered and accessed.
