SmartGuider is a trayless device that utilizes the simplicity of a handle and
screws. The integrated handle is attached onto the hard drive (or SSD inside a
SSD Bracket) with auto-limiting segmented screws. Then, the entire HDD/SSD
SmartGuider Kit can be slide into the RAID System by aligning the screws with
its specially designed guides. This enables flexibility for easy hard drive/SSD
removal and insertion.
