DP25 Drive Carrier. SATA

DataPort 25The DataPort 25 makes either one or two 2.5" HDD’s removable from any standard 3.5" floppy drive bay. Palm sized. heavy-duty stainless steel construction for rugged applications. Ideal for Small Form Factor systems where space is critical. Dual drive feature increases storage capacity and supports RAID 0 or 1.Thermal TestingDataPort 25 thermal testing was performed in a standard PC chassis. Two 7200 RPM IDE drives were installed in a DP25 carrier. An Iometer test was run to simulate a high-demand file server application. Temperatures were measured on the motors of both drives and the top of the upper drive. Highest temperatures were found on the drive motors. After two hours. 47.1C was measured on the upper drive motor. Subsequent measurements hovered around 46C. To ensure accurate results. testing continued until after the drive temperatures had stabilized. After five hours of continuous testing. hard drive temperatures remained well below the drive manufacturer's specification for maximum operating temperature of 55C.
