SATA 3Gbps DE50 is a removable drive carrier
and receiving frame, designed to provide durable and reliable mounting for one (1) 2.5" SATA
3Gbps drive within a 3.5" or 5.25" peripheral slot (with factory-installed adapter bracket). It
is downward compatible with earlier technology SATA drives.
The SATA 3Gbps DE50 allows a drive to be removed and transported to another SATA 3Gbps
DE50-equipped computer or expansion chassis, and also provides the ability to secure
sensitive data by removing and storing the drive safely for future use.
