Data security is essential for every business. In military or medical environments, it is necessary to protect hardware from loss or theft. The all-metal ToughArmor MB996SK-6SB rugged backplane module individual metal locks for each of the 6 slots, MB996SK-6SB gives you full control over the physical protection of your hard drives and SSDs including a fan with three-stage control, status LEDs and vibration protection. The metal security locks provide an extra level of physical protection for your data and access control that ensures that only authorised personnel can access the drives. The lockable trays also protect against data loss due to unintentional ejection of the drives, for example, during data transfer. Part of ICY DOCK's most solid product range, the ToughArmor MB996SK-6SB is made entirely of metal - from the casing to the trays. This ensures a long service life in adverse operating environments. ToughArmor has been specifically designed for industrial applications and demanding operating environments such as military, factory or aviation systems, and offers high flammability protection. The ToughArmor MB996SK-6SB features a powerful 40 mm fan with three-stage fan control (high, low, off) and is therefore easy to adjust to different operating environments, whether you prefer maximum cooling or quiet operation. In addition, the ventilation holes in the trays help dissipate heat through the fan and the metal construction allows further passive heat dissipation. To be compatible with as many computer systems as possible, two 4-pin to 15-pin adapter cables are included, so you can use either Molex or SATA power cable.
