CP156 is a ToughArmor series removable NVMe enclosure that fits into a standard external 3.5" drive bay. It allows two 7mm U.2/U.3 NVMe SSDs to be mounted together on a single removable tray. Unlike traditional 2-bay designs where each SSD is removed separately, CP156 keeps both drives physically secured on the same tray. This ensures that:
For RAID configurations, mirrored datasets, or application-specific SSD pairs, maintaining correct drive sequence is critical. CP156 eliminates the risk of mix-ups during physical movement.
CP156 is purpose-built for workflows where data is physically transported between systems. By securing both SSDs with screws inside the tray, the design prioritizes mechanical stability and safe movement over tool-less convenience. This makes it ideal for:
The unified tray design ensures that SSD pairing and data structure integrity remain intact throughout the transport cycle.
As part of the ToughArmor family, CP156 features:
This rugged construction makes CP156 suitable for:
The design focuses on reliability and physical security rather than tool-less convenience.
CP156 supports:
Front LED indicators provide clear SSD power and activity status. Hot-plug capability enables SSD replacement without shutting down the system (subject to host support). Despite its compact 3.5" bay footprint, CP156 delivers enterprise-grade NVMe performance. Backed by a 5-year limited warranty, it provides long-term dependability for professional storage environments.
