There are several manufacturers of such devices but we have one of the better ones on tap for you today. Icy Dock has been doing this for over fifteen years and has become a leader at it. FatCage MB153SP-B is one of several models coming from Icy Dock; the series would include the DataCage Basic and the FlexCage. Each having their own unique features, so we will try and get them into the lab so we can give you more insight on them. For you that do not know actually what a SATA Backplane let me give you a brief understanding. It’s a small box that usually fit into an optical drive bay or two there are even some 3.5” models that allows the usage of multiple hard drives. The models fitted for the 5.25” bay can usually support both 2.5” and 3.5” drives while the smaller unit can only support multiple 2.5” drives. And if you get a good one you will even get Raid support.
