Introduction

This high quality Removable SATA Hard Drive Drawer/Mobile Rack delivers a

convenient SATA hot-swap solution, allowing you to quickly swap Serial ATA hard

drives in and out of a computer without having to open the computer case.

Simply install the (included) drive bay into a 5.25in drive bay on the host computer,

then mount a 3.5in SATA HDD into the (removable) caddy. Connecting the SATA hard

drive to the computer is as easy as inserting the caddy into the drive bay, which can be

locked to prevent unauthorized removal of the installed SATA drive.

A suitable solution for large volume drives, the HDD drawer supports SATA, SATA II, and

SATA III-6Gbps hard drives allowing you to swap in large amounts of data in a matter of

seconds. With support for SATA HDD speeds up to 6.0 Gbps, the mobile rack/backplane

is fully compatible with RAID installations to ensure maximum performance and

versatility for enhanced storage applications.

The drive caddy features a rear panel ball bearing fan that helps keep the enclosed

drive cool, in turn helping to optimize operation while preserving drive lifespan.

To prevent damage to the hard drive(s) while being transferred in and out of the

computer, the drive caddy features shock absorbers and rubber cushioning that help

limit vibration/shock to the drive. This mobile rack is also compatible with DRW113-

series SATA hard drive caddies.

Instruction Manual

Installation

Installing Hard Drive in the Caddy

WARNING! Hard drives and storage enclosures require careful handling, especially

when being transported. If you are not careful with your hard disk, lost data may

result. Always handle your hard drive and storage device with caution. Be sure that

you are properly grounded by wearing an anti-static strap when handling computer

components or discharge yourself of any static electricity build-up by touching a large

grounded metal surface (such as the computer case) for several seconds.

1. Remove the caddy from the bay by lifting the handle and sliding the caddy out of

the bay.

2. Remove the top panel from the caddy by pressing the cover release button and

sliding the lid towards the back of the caddy.

3. Connect the short SATA data cable inside the drive caddy to the hard drive.

4. Attach the SATA power cable inside the drive caddy to the hard drive.

5. Gently place the hard drive in the caddy, making sure that the screw-holes on the

bottom of the hard drive line up with the holes in the caddy.

6. Firmly hold the hard drive to the shock absorber plate and use the four #6-32 x

1/4”(coarse thread) screws to mount your hard drive to the drawer from underneath.

7. Replace the top panel of the caddy.

Instruction Manual

Installing the Bay in the PC

WARNING! Computer parts can be severely damaged by static electricity. Be sure

that you are properly grounded before opening your computer case. StarTech.

com recommends that you wear an anti-static strap when installing any computer

component. If an anti-static strap is unavailable, discharge yourself of any static

electricity build-up by touching a large grounded metal surface (such as the computer

case) for several seconds.

1. Turn your computer o and any peripherals connected to the computer (i.e. Printers,

external hard drives, etc.). Unplug the power cable from the rear of the power

supply on the back of the computer and disconnect all peripheral devices.

2. Remove the side covers from your system and remove the front cover from an

available 5.25”drive bay (see your computer’s user manual for details, if necessary).

3. Insert the bay into the 5.25” bay slot, making sure that the screw-holes on the side of

the bay line up with the holes in the bay slot.

4. Connect a SATA data and LP4 Molex power cable to the rear of the bay from the

computer systems SATA controller and power supply respectively.

NOTE: If the drive will be hot-swapped, the SATA host controller and operating system

must both support hot-swapping. The “System” drive cannot be hot-swapped, as it

contains the operating system. Only secondary drives can be hot-swapped through

the operating system.

5. Place the cover back onto the computer case.

6. Insert the power cable into the socket on the power supply and reconnect all other

connectors removed in Step 1.

Installing the Caddy in the Bay

1. With the handle on the caddy fully raised, insert the caddy into the bay.

2. Once inserted as far as it will allow, lower the handle to rmly seat the caddy into

the bay.

3. Use the provided key to lock the caddy into the bay by turning the lock counter-

clockwise. The caddy must be locked in order for the drive to power up.

Instruction Manual

Removing the Drive Drawer

1. Insert the key and turn clockwise to unlock the drive drawer.

2. Lift the handle and gently pull the caddy out of the bay.

NOTE: Do not unlock the drawer when the hard drive is in use (See “Monitoring Your

Hard Disk Drive and Drawer” below). Only power down the drive when the hard drive is

idle. Once you have powered down the hard drive, wait about 15 seconds to let the

hard drive“spin down” before removing the caddy from the bay.

Monitoring Your Hard Disk Drive and Drawer

The status LED is located on the right side of the drive drawer. It is your best indication

of the hard drive’s status, and is lit when the drawer is successfully inserted and locked

into the caddy.

NOTE: It is recommended that you avoid removing a drawer during hard disk activity,

as doing so could damage the drive and/or data.
