Carcasa de almacenamiento Icy Dock ToughArmor MB992SKR-B

The Icy Dock ToughArmor MB992SKR-B is a 3.5" external bay storage enclosure that fits two 2.5" SSDs or HDDs (7 mm and 9.5 mm heights). It is designed for systems with limited space and provides hardware RAID support (RAID 0, RAID 1, BIG and JBOD) without requiring an additional RAID controller, enabling easy addition of a 2.5" RAID array to workstations, embedded systems, DVRs and other equipment. The unit has a full metal construction and a black finish, and its compact dimensions allow installation into standard 3.5" drive bays.

Advantages

The ToughArmor MB992SKR-B combines high density storage with hardware RAID functionality in a single 3.5" bay: it accommodates two 2.5" drives, supports multiple RAID modes for redundancy or performance, and eliminates the need for a separate RAID card. Its all-metal build ensures durability and suitability for commercial, industrial and embedded applications while the support for both 7 mm and 9.5 mm drives provides compatibility with a wide range of SSDs and HDDs.

How to use

Install the MB992SKR-B into an available 3.5" external bay in your system, mount up to two 2.5" drives (7 mm or 9.5 mm) into the trays, and connect the enclosure to your system according to the provided interface and power connections. Use the built-in hardware RAID selector to choose the desired RAID mode (RAID 0, RAID 1, BIG or JBOD). After configuring the RAID mode, initialize and format the new logical drive in your operating system if required.

Recommendations

For systems where data redundancy or higher throughput is required, select RAID 1 for redundancy or RAID 0 for maximum performance. Use identical capacity and specification drives for best RAID results. Ensure your system is powered down before installing or removing drives and follow ESD precautions when handling SSDs/HDDs.
