Q: Does MB742SP-B support the new SATA 3.3 / SAS 3.0 Power Disable feature (PWDIS)?
A: The MB742SP-B does not support the SATA 3.3 / SAS 3.0 PWDIS feature. If you install the SATA/SAS HDD/SSD with PWDIS in MB742SP-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.
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.

3.5” Mobile Racks for 2.5" SATA/SAS SSD/HDD
With ICY DOCK’s 3.5” drive bay enclosure series, we can maximize the unused 3.5" drive bay of any workstation with an easily removable drive enclosure in the frontal bay. We believe this is critical for most industries that are transitioning to be more efficient, frequently require more drive swap than others, and the ability to transport data from one system to another when drives are in the frontal bay as opposed to being stored internally.
