Mac Pro drive sled ships


Trans International today began shipping its Pro Sled Mac Pro hard disk drive sled, offering users the ability to swap out hard drives for a Mac Pro system. Users can assign and label drives for different clients, projects, or backup purposes to avoid misplacing data or overwriting files. Once mounted on the Pro Sled, drives are cold-swappable and plug directly into the Mac Pro main logic board. "Power users need drives ready for easy exchange and replacement," said Trans International. "The Pro Sled gives you the capability of unlimited swappable drives for your Mac Pro." The device requires no power cables, and is priced at $30.

    ???

    I thought the machine came with sleds for all 4 drive slots? I thought drives could be added to the other three slots without buying any separate mechanisms...
