2.5-inch SATA removable drive bay for a full-profile expansion slot
A trayless removable bay that installs in an available full-profile expansion-slot opening, providing rear-panel access to one compatible 2.5-inch SATA HDD or SSD.

Key capabilities
Uses an expansion-slot opening
Mounts in a full-profile expansion-slot opening rather than a front drive bay.
Trayless drive access
Insert and remove a bare compatible 2.5-inch SATA drive without a separate tray.
Hot-swap capable
The exact specification lists hot-swap capability when the host SATA environment also supports it.
SATA cabling included
Includes a 20-inch SATA data cable and LP4-to-SATA breakout/power cable.
