System builders managing multiple operating systems can enhance their drives' security with more direct physical control of power to the drives. Options in managing drives allow users to use the drives as they see fit.
Individual Drive Power Buttons
The four drive bays feature a solid individual power button to allow each drive to shut off to manage the drive's operating status instantly, enables ease of usage across various applications such as multi-OS booting, loading authorized data. Shut off the drive when not using it to prevent a hacker/virus attack and reduce power and drive usage.

The tray-less and door-less design allows users to swap out HDDs/SSDs quickly and easily within seconds. Simply slide in the drive and perform your task. Once the drive is inserted, the ejection button will then protrude out. Drive ejection is just as simple with a push on the ejection button and mechanism.
Packed with Features
When a drive is fully inserted into the enclosure, the built-in LED activity indicator on the power button will illuminate, signaling that the drive is powered and in use. To conserve energy, the LEDs will turn off automatically when no drives are present. A 40mm cooling fan, which is included, dissipates heat effectively through strategically placed ventilation holes. The fan speed is easily adjustable via the front control or can be turned off with the fan on/off jumper, depending on the work environment. The external metal shell of the FlexiDOCK MB014SP-B protects sensitive hard drives from external forces, extending the drives' lifespan.
