Server accessory for hot-swap SATA and SAS drives
The iStarUSA T-7M1-SATA-KL fits a standard 5.25 inch bay and accepts one 2.5 inch or 3.5 inch drive with SATA or SAS interfaces. A key lock secures the tray while power and activity LEDs show drive status at a glance. It is aimed at administrators who need quick drive changes without opening the chassis.
Sustained load behaviour with active cooling
An 80 mm blower fan pushes air directly over the installed drive to keep temperatures stable during continuous read and write cycles. The aluminium chassis acts as a heatsink and the power button lets you spin the drive down before removal. No master or slave jumpers are required so the drive appears immediately after insertion.
Interface practical limits
The backplane supports SATA I, II and III as well as SAS I and II with a maximum transfer rate of 6.0 Gbps. Drives up to 6 TB have been validated for compatibility. The cableless SATA connector ensures a clean signal path but performance will not exceed the 6.0 Gbps ceiling of the SATA III and SAS II specifications.

Questions about this item
How loud and hot does the 80mm fan run when the rack operates all day?
The single 80mm blower fan provides active airflow through the aluminum chassis to keep 3.5" or 2.5" drives cool during continuous use.
What host interface must my server or backplane provide for this rack to work?
The tray uses a cableless SATA or SAS 6.0 Gbps connector, so the backplane or controller must present a matching SATA or SAS port.
Will my existing 3.5" SATA I drives work in this hot-swap tray alongside newer 6.0 Gbps drives?
Yes, the rack supports SATA I, II and III as well as SAS I and II, so older 3.5" SATA drives are compatible.
