Product Introduction

Introducing the ToughArmor MB606SPO-B ruggedized mobile rack for hot-swapping 6x SATA/SAS SSDs and HDDs up to 7mm in height, and 1x Ultra-Slim 9.5mm CD/DVD/Blu-ray ROM optical disk drive reader for the external 5.25" bay. Featuring industrial full-metal construction inside and out, and designed for commercial applications such as military and medical systems, airborne and shipboard PCs, in-vehicle systems, servers, workstations, and mobile computer systems. Maintain optimal drive temperatures with the user-configurable 40mm cooling fan and plenty of ventilation holes throughout the enclosure. Advanced removable trays with anti-vibration protect drives in harsh environments, and built-in individual status LEDs give you drive updates at a glance.
Maximize Space-Efficiency

The high-density design of ToughArmor MB606SPO-B packs six 5mm-7mm 2.5" SSD/HDD hot-swap bays and one Ultra-Slim CD/DVD/Blu-ray ROM optical disk drive into a single 5.25" drive bay, perfect for space-sensitive applications such as powerhouse PC, portable military workstation, and rackmount industrial PC.
MB606SPO-B's newly designed optical drive bracket features an adaptable design to support Ultra-Slim 9.5mm CD/DVD/Blu-Ray ROM optical disk drive reader.
MB606SPO-B's tray is designed to support HDDs and SSDs up to 7mm in height, making them compatible with SAS drives as well as SATA drives. SAS drives are used in enterprise applications such as long-term archival for their long lifespan and higher reliability
Designed for Versatility

When you're using an ultra-slim disk drive, installation is easy using the conveniently labeled screw holes. Once connected, simply secure the built-in screw and your drive is locked into place. This ensures that your optical disk drive reader stays put, even under heavy movement or vibrations.
When it's time to replace or upgrade your CD/DVD/Blu-ray optical disk drive reader, removal is just as easy. When the bracket screw is loosened, the spring-loaded ejection arm is revealed. Simply pull the ejection arm to remove the optical disk drive from the enclosure.
Built Tough

ICY DOCK's ToughArmor uses a ruggedized full-metal construction throughout the enclosure and trays, and this trend continues with the MB606SPO-B. ToughArmor is specifically designed for industrial applications operating in strenuous conditions, such as in military and medical applications, avionics systems, factory and warehouse machinery, and any application requiring a flammability rating.
Packed with Features

To prevent the build-up of dust, which over time can clog internal connectors and inhibit airflow, the included dust cover protects the enclosure when an optical drive is not in use. When you're ready to install an CD/DVD/Blu-ray optical disk drive, the dust cover is easily removed without tools or screws.
Individual LED lights for each bay give you drive status updates at a glance, letting you know when your drives are powered on or in use.
A user-controllable 40mm cooling fan works with the ample ventilation holes in the tray and chassis to remove as much heat as possible and keep drives running at optimal temperatures. The fan can be set to high for intense mechanical HDD applications, low for use with cooler SSDs, and can be shut off completely to be cooled by the computers built-in cooling system.
Support for SATA data and power cables with locking latch designs, so you'll never have to worry about cables accidently disconnecting while in use. Once these cables are connected, they'll stay locked into place until manually removed, providing a reliable power and data connection.

FAQ

Q: Can I replace the cooling fan attached to the device? Will doing that void the warranty?

A: The cooling fan we used has been thoroughly tested with the drive enclosure to ensure it functions properly and supports the fan speed control (for select models). Therefore, we suggest our customers keep the original fan for the best result. However, we understand the stock fan may not be suitable for all the applications, so we elected to honor the warranty when 3rd party fan is using. The warranty may void if the 3rd party fan causes electrical damage to the device, though.

Q: Which specification should I check before buying the 3rd party cooling fan?

A:The following information is the fan specification requirement and compatible fan models for MB606SPO-B

Fan Dimension (LxWxH)	40 x 40 x 10mm	40 x 40 x 20mm
Connector Type	3 Pin Wafer
Rated Voltage (VDC)	12V DC
Rated Current (A)	< 0.12A (127mA)

Q: Does MB606SPO-B support the new SATA 3.3 / SAS 3.0 Power Disable feature (PWDIS)?

A: The MB606SPO-B does not support the SATA 3.3 / SAS 3.0 PWDIS feature. If you install the SATA/SAS HDD/SSD with PWDIS in MB606SPO-B , the drive will not spin, and the system won't detect the drive. See the list below for known SATA/SAS HDD/SSD with the PWDIS feature.

Known SATA/SAS HDD/SSD with Power Disable Feature (PWDIS)

While we recommend to avoid using the SATA/SAS HDD/SSD with PWDIS, you can use the methods below to disable the PWDIS feature physically if you already purchased the drive:

Method 1 – Using the Molex to SATA adapter or cable to disconnect the power to Pin 3 of the SATA power connector.


Molex to SATA Adapter		Molex to SATA Cable

Method 2 – Placing Kapton tape on Pin 1-3 of the SATA/SAS power connector to isolate the 3.3V power, as shown below.

Please contact tech@icydock.com if the problem persists.
