Overview

Turn your old optical drive slot into a rack for 2 x NVMe M.2 SSDs

The ICY-DOCK ToughArmor MB852M2PO-B replaces the old CD/DVD ROM with 2 x high-speed NVMe M.2 SSDs. It fits into the Ultra-Slim 9.5mm optical disk array (ODD) and uses removable M.2 platters for effortless disk access and maintenance. It is the perfect storage upgrade solution for custom industrial PCs, rackmount servers and embedded systems. The ToughArmor MB852M2PO-B's interchangeable M.2 drive trays allow you to easily access drives from your system's ultra-slim front optical drive bay without opening the computer case. To support M.2 22110 SSDs, the length of the MB852M2PO-B is longer than the standard Ultra-Slim outer diameter (159.3mm). The ToughArmor MB852M2PO-B is designed with an adjustable M.2 tray that allows for tool-free drive installation and removal. Simply insert M.2 SSDs (2230, 2242, 2260, 2280 and 22110).

To fully utilize the speeds of the M.2 NVMe SSDs, each drive bay in the MB852M2PO-B uses its own PCIe Gen 4 OCuLink (SFF-8612) connection and supports data transfer speeds of up to 64GB/s, which is up to 2 times faster than PCIe 3.0 and 10 times faster than the SATA interface.

Finally, to prevent overheating, the platter is made of metal which acts as a heat sink. Heat is dissipated through large openings on the top and bottom of the MB852M2PO-B. For even greater efficiency, a thermal pad is included. It fills the gap between the contact surface and transfers the heat from the M.2 SSD to the larger surface of the metal cover, allowing the airflow to dissipate the heat quickly.

Main features:
  • Rack fits in place of a built-in 9.5mm highDVD drive/writer
  • Fits 2x PCIe M.2 NVMe SSDs of any length - 2230 (30mm), 2242 (42mm), 2260 (60mm), 2280 (80mm), and 22110 (110mm)
  • Uses 2x PCIe Gen 4 OCuLink connectors and supports transfer rates up to 64GB/s
  • OCuLink connector supports SFF-9402 specification
  • Fits into an ultra-slim 9.5mm optical drive bay (ODD) with a minimum space of 160mm
  • Removable disk tray with tool-free disk installation design for easy disk maintenance
  • EMI-Grounding - protects discs from electrical damage
  • Anti-Vibration Technology (AVT) reduces noise and protects against environmental damage
  • Active Power Technology (APT) saves energy by shutting down the unit when no disc is installed
  • Integrated thermal pad conducts heat from the hard drive to the metal platter
  • NVMe host and OCuLink connection required. Not compatible with SATA host
  • 3 year warranty against defects
