Single-bay hot-swap cage for 12Gb/s SAS
The iStarUSA T-7DE-HD fits one 2.5-inch or 3.5-inch SAS I/II/III or SATA I/II/III drive into a standard 5.25-inch front bay. It is built for server administrators who need quick drive replacement without shutting down the system.
Verify a free 5.25-inch bay
Before ordering, confirm the chassis has an available 5.25-inch opening and that the backplane or controller provides SAS or SATA ports supporting the desired drive generation. The cage requires a point-to-point link and does not use master/slave configuration.
Aluminium frame with optional 40mm fan sustains
An open-frame aluminium chassis and optional 40mm fan dissipate heat during continuous 12Gb/s transfers. The key lock secures the drive during vibration-heavy workloads, and the cage accommodates drives up to 14TB capacity.

Questions about this item
Does the iStarUSA T-7DE-HD include a 40 mm fan or do I need to buy one separately?
The cage has an optional 40 mm fan mount; the fan itself is not included and must be purchased separately if active cooling is desired.
Should I choose this model for 14 TB SAS drives or for 2.5" SATA SSDs?
The tray accepts both 3.5" and 2.5" drives and supports SAS I/II/III and SATA I/II/III, so 14 TB SAS drives and 2.5" SATA SSDs are both compatible.
What does the 12 Gb/s headline rate mean once the cage is installed in my server?
The backplane is point-to-point and rated for 12 Gb/s SAS/SATA, so each drive can run at its native 12 Gb/s speed without master/slave negotiation.
