About this product
This unbranded 5-bay hot-swap cage transforms three 5.25-inch drive bays into a housing for five 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch SATA/SAS HDDs. Constructed from aluminum and plastic, it supports SATA I/II/III interfaces. The unit provides an efficient way to expand internal storage with hot-swap functionality, measuring 220x130x150mm and weighing 2.5kg.
Our take
This unbranded 5-bay hot-swap cage is a straightforward solution for expanding your internal storage. The flexibility to use either five 3.5-inch or five 2.5-inch drives, including SAS, is a definite advantage, allowing for various configurations. It fits neatly into three standard 5.25-inch bays, which is a common footprint. While the aluminum and plastic construction is par for the course at this price, it provides decent structural integrity. It's a functional piece of hardware that delivers hot-swap convenience for SATA I/II/III drives without any unnecessary frills. A solid choice for basic storage expansion.
