The IcyDock ToughArmor MB699VP-B V2 is a Ruggedized Quad Bay Removable U.2 NVMe SSD Enclosure supporting PCIe 4.0 and fetching up to 64Gb/s data transfer rates through OCuLink (SFF-8612) interface. It is made out of heavy-duty full-metal construction and equipped with removable U.2 drive trays that simplify the time-consuming drive installation/removal process for easy drive maintenance. As PCIe 4.0 NVMe U.2 SSDs are prone to high temperatures under heavy load, the built-in dual 40x20mm cooling fans keep the drives at optimal temperatures and let you adjust the fan speed through the 3-speed fan control located in the rear of the enclosure.
Superior PCIe 4.0 Performance
To unlock the full potential of the PCIe 4.0 U.2 NVMe SSD, each drive bay uses a dedicated OCuLink (SFF-8612) connector to achieve the bandwidth rate of 64Gb/s, which is two times faster than PCIe 3.0 and 10 times faster than SATA standards. The extremely fast IOPS (Input/output operations per second) makes it an ideal solution for data-intensive applications such as autonomous driving, mobile automation, real-time forecast, film editing, and military computing.
Maximizing Cooling Performance
Built-in with the dual 40x20mm cooling fans, the heat generates by U.2 SSD is further dispersed through the intelligently place ventilation holes throughout the entire enclosure. The dual cooling fans come with three fan speed settings: High, Low, and off. The user can choose the appropriate fan speed option to keep the drives at optimal operating temperatures.
Never forget which drives belong in what bays. With included individual drive ID labels, you'll always know which drive tray belongs in your RAID array or which drives contains specific files. Freely unplug and rearrange them to better suit your configurations or remove them for a simplified look.
The ToughArmor MB699VP-B V2 supports 15-pin SATA power cables with locking latches. You'll never need to worry about cables unintentionally disconnecting from your enclosure. Once these cables are connected, they will lock and stay in place.
