Sonnet Technologies Fusion 400 (Version 2) - Manual (Page 3)

Introduction
Sonnet’s Fusion 400 4-bay Serial ATA (SATA) drive enclosure
combines the versatility of hot-swap functionality with sup-
port for the fastest 3.5" SATA drives in a compact package. This
enclosure supports 3Gb/s drives and is backward compatible with
1.5Gb/s drives, so you’ll get maximum flexibility in choosing
drives for years to come.
Fusion 400 was designed with form and function in equal bal-
ance. The drive trays have built-in locking levers that double as
handles to make swapping drives easy; its powerful built-in uni-
versal power supply and the cable-less connections from drives to
enclosure simplify setup and assure reliability over the long haul.
The enclosure’s user-swappable fan pulls air through its holes and
those in the tray handles to cool the drives (even the bottom of
each removable tray is open for air flow) to make Fusion 400 a
cool running solution—the lower the drives’ temperature, the
lower the failure rate.
Whether you start off with one drive for simple backups, or stuff
Fusion 400 with the highest capacity, fastest SATA drives you can
get your hands on to create a high-def digital video editing suite,
this is a product sure to leave you SATAsfied!
