Ohišje SSD Icy Dock MB834M2K-B črno M.2

The Icy Dock ToughArmor MB834M2K-B is a rugged M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD front-mount enclosure that provides tool-less installation and hot-swap capability for up to two M.2 NVMe drives. It supports standard M.2 lengths (2230, 2242, 2260, 2280, 22110) and connects via MiniSAS HD (SFF-8643) at PCIe x4 speeds up to 32 Gb/s. The enclosure features a full-metal chassis, removable high-efficiency aluminum heatsinks on each tray, ventilation holes, status LEDs and a barrel key lock for physical security.

Advantages

The design enables front-accessible, tool-less installation and removal of M.2 NVMe SSDs in under five seconds, eliminating the need for tiny screws. Each drive tray includes a large aluminum heatsink and thermal pads to improve heat dissipation, while multiple ventilation openings assist system airflow. The adjustable M.2 locker provides grounding during swaps to protect against static discharge. Rugged full-metal construction and an integrated barrel key lock add physical protection and stability in demanding environments.

Suitable for (tasks / use cases)

• Systems requiring frequent drive swaps or hot-swap access
• Servers, workstations, and industrial or in-vehicle systems
• High-performance storage setups using M.2 NVMe PCIe drives
• Environments needing added physical security for drives

How to use

Slide the tray out from the front of the enclosure, place the M.2 NVMe SSD into the tray at the correct position, adjust the built-in adjustable M.2 locker to match the drive length and press the drive down until it locks. Replace the heatsink by aligning it on the tray and pressing down until it snaps into place. Insert the tray into the enclosure until it engages; the drive will be grounded through the locker when clipped into the SSD mounting hole. The device supports hot-swap operation so drives can be removed or inserted while the system is running according to your system’s hot-swap procedure.

Recommendations

For optimal thermal performance and longevity, ensure the enclosure is installed in a chassis with adequate airflow and confirm the heatsink makes solid contact with the SSD using the provided thermal pads. Use the barrel key lock to secure drives in transport or rough environments and follow standard hot-swap procedures to avoid data loss.
