FANTEC BP-SA35-12G/6G is a 3.5-inch HDD mounting frame designed to install a single hard drive into a 13.30 cm drive bay. The frame offers a mechanical interface that aligns and secures standard 3.5" SATA hard disk drives inside compatible enclosures or chassis, simplifying replacement and maintenance while maintaining reliable mechanical stability during operation.

Advantages

The frame provides a precise fit for 3.5" HDDs, reducing vibration and ensuring correct alignment with bay connectors. Its robust construction supports easy insertion and removal of drives, streamlines servicing, and helps prevent drive movement that can affect performance. Compatibility with common drive bay dimensions makes it suitable for various storage enclosures and desktop or rack-mounted chassis.

Suitable for

• Replacing or mounting a single 3.5" hard disk in a 13.30 cm drive bay
• Upgrading storage in desktop PCs, external enclosures, or NAS chassis that accept 13.30 cm frames
• Situations requiring secure mechanical mounting to reduce drive vibration and movement

Key specifications

• Form factor: 3.5-inch HDD mounting frame
• Supported bay size: 13.30 cm drive bay (single bay)
• Supported drive type: standard 3.5" hard disk drives
• Material: metal/plastic composite construction for stability (manufacturer specification)
• Mounting: tool-assisted or tool-free insertion depending on enclosure compatibility

How to use

Insert the 3.5" hard disk into the frame, ensuring the drive connector side aligns with the bay opening. Secure the drive to the frame using the mounting points provided, then slide the assembled frame into the 13.30 cm drive bay until it clicks or locks into place according to the enclosure design. Connect power and data cables or rely on the bay's backplane connection as applicable. For removal, disconnect cables or release the bay latch and slide the frame out, then unscrew or unclip the drive from the frame as needed.

Recommendations

Use the frame in compatible enclosures and chassis that support a 13.30 cm bay to ensure proper mechanical alignment and reliable backplane connection. Handle drives and the frame on an anti-static surface, and follow the enclosure manufacturer's guidance for torque and fastening to avoid damaging drive electronics or connectors.
