Features

• Swappable tray in a standard 5 1/4" internally mountable bay
(same size as most CD-ROM drives). A spare internal SATA
port is required.

• Hot-swappable tray allows you to switch drives without shutting
down the system. (Assuming your computer’s internal SATA
host supports this feature.)

• Tray is compatible with other products in the SilverSATA series.
Use the SilverSATA I Internal to easily access one of the
mirrored drives from a Silver SATA II SR in RAID 1 mode.

• Durable, aluminum alloy case offers excellent heat dissipation.

• Integrated fan ensures the hard drive stays cool.

3. Install your hard drive into the tray. Unlock the tray by using the plastic key. Slide the tray out of

the outer casing. Remove the plastic spacer. Lay the drive into the frame of the removable tray, making
sure it lays flat. Align the 4 screw positions then use the included screws (#6-32) to secure the drive into
position.

4. Insert the tray into the SilverSATA I unit. Gently push the tray along the sliding track into the hard

drive compartment and then close the tray, as shown below.

5. Mount SilverSATA I Internal in your computer. In an open 5 ¼” bay in your computer, install

SilverSATA I Internal just as you would a CD/DVD ROM.

6. Plug in the data cable. The SilverSATA I Internal connects to your

computer through SATA. One end of the cable connects to the back of
the unit. Insert the other end into an available port on your computer’s motherboard or add-in card.

7. Plug in the power. Take an unused Molex 4-wire power connector

from inside your computer and plug that into the back of SilverSATA I
Internal. If your drive is already formatted, you can begin using the unit
right away. New hard drives will need to be formatted before they can
be used.
