Enclosure and Drive Cradle Overview
The drive enclosure is the enclosure where a SATA hard drive is mounted and
secured by 4 screws.
Drive cradle, also known as fixed tray, is the frame that mounts inside the drive
bay of a desktop, server or any computing equipment. The drive cradle provides
both power and data connection between the computer and the drive enclosure.
The Diamond cipher drive cradle fits into any standard 5 ¼” drive bay and can
connect to the computer via SATA or USB 2.0. This interface allows hot
swapping the hard drive without restarting or rebooting the system. The Diamond
drive cradle is compatible with all Diamond drive enclosures and Diamond cipher
drive enclosures. As a result you can insert SATA or IDE hard drive, encrypted or
unencrypted, into the same drive cradle of a computer.
