Got this for sale;

Icy Dock MB455 5 x Hotswap SATA 150/300 Fits in 3 x 5.25 Bays - XCASE No1 For pc computer cases, atx cases & rackmount cases (http://www.xcase.co.uk/p/298451/icy-dock-mb455-5-x-hotswap-sata-150300-fits-in-3-x-525-bays.html)

Selling as i've got a problem...the detachable fan on it isn't coming on and i think its probably not getting enough power as i've only got a 250w PSU and its already on the limit running just the 5 drives + USB devices.

That aside its ideal for a NAS box (what i'm using it for)....even if the fan is faulty, in a different case with proper cooling (mine is a crammed ITX) it'd be just fine. As i said tho...i think its just power related in my case.

You can see the price new...about 85 delivered now....but i'd take 60 quid all in.

Be available in a approx a week once my (simpler and cheaper) replacment arrives.

:)

What happens when you just have one drive in? Does the fan spin up then?

Update!

I got the fan working...nowt to with power, it just the connectors aren't lining up 100% on the detachable bit. Will fix that properly tonighjt but its working spot on now.
