SAS DX115 is a removable drive carrier and re-
ceiving frame, designed to provide durable and reliable mounting for one (1) low-profile (up
to 1" high) 3.5" SAS drive within a 5.25" half-height peripheral slot (Figure 2). It is downward-
compatible with SATA technology.
The SAS DX115 allows a drive to be removed and transported to another SAS DX115-equipped
computer or expansion chassis, and also provides the ability to secure sensitive data by
removing and storing the drive safely for future use.
This User's Guide describes the steps required to install the SAS DX115 removable enclosure
inside a computer peripheral bay or external expansion chassis. This guide supplements
documentation provided with the host computer system, operating system, and the drive to
be installed within the carrier.
