World’s First Quad M.2 NVMe Removable SSD Mobile Rack

A typical M.2 NVMe is installed on the motherboard or even a riser card which is often secured by a tiny screw. With this method, it can be a hassle and a time-consuming process to install or remove the drive physically. However, with the ToughArmor MB720M2K-B, your drives are brought to the front of the computer case, making M.2 drive installation and removal a more straightforward and efficient process.

Demonstration

When using the ToughArmor MB720M2K-B, the user can simply place their M.2 NVMe SSD in the drive tray, adjust the drive locker to the correct length per M.2 drive size and be set to go. With this method, it will take users a few seconds per drive tray to install, avoid the hassle of dealing with tools and screws while being more efficient and innovative way to installing M.2 drives.

Full Drive Length Support

The patent-pending adjustable M.2 locker slider accommodates all standard M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD drives including 2230 (30mm), 2242 (43mm), 2260 (60mm), and 22110 (110mm), making this drive universal to all drive length and future-proofing the extra long M.2 110mm drive.

EMI Grounding Technology

As little do people know, grounding your drive is very important through many swaps; to ensure your drive and most importantly your drives are always safe. Without grounding, when swapping drives, there is a high possibility that there may be static shocks which can damage your drive and lose your data. With our innovative adjustable M.2 locker, it grounds your drive automatically once your M.2 locker clips into the SSD screw hole. The drive will be constantly grounded throughout the tray and housing of the enclosure. The grounded connector design protects your drives from static electrical surge, ensuring your data is always safe during drive swapping.
