3.5 to 2.5 Hotswap Cage
The iStarUSA T-G35-SS converts a single 3.5" drive bay into a hotswap slot for 2.5" SAS and SATA drives. It supports SAS I/II and SATA I/II/III protocols with a 6.0 Gb/s transfer rate. The cage is built for server and storage chassis that need quick drive changes without powering down.
Sustained Transfer and Heat
A full metal chassis conducts heat away from the drive during continuous read or write workloads. The 6.0 Gb/s interface maintains bandwidth for sequential operations typical of RAID arrays or backup targets. Front LEDs show power status and drive activity so administrators can monitor health at a glance.
Tool-Free Install with Key Lock
Drives slide into a screw-less carrier that accepts standard 9.5 mm drives; a separate bracket is available for 7 mm SSDs. The carrier locks with a key to prevent accidental ejection. Installers must verify the chassis provides a standard 3.5" bay opening of 4.00" x 1.00" and 5.64" depth.

Questions about this item
How much heat does the metal chassis dissipate when a drive runs all day?
The metal body is designed for heat dissipation, but no thermal rating or fan specification is provided.
What host interface must my server backplane provide for the 6.0 Gb/s rate?
The cage passes through a SATA or SAS connection at up to 6.0 Gb/s from the backplane to the 2.5" drive.
Will a 3.5" SAS drive fit in the same bay alongside this adapter?
No — the unit converts a single 3.5" bay to accept one 2.5" SATA or SAS drive only.
