Applications
Removable IDE hard drive caddies like the Cybernet VP-15 were used in servers, workstations, and desktop towers from the early-to-mid 1990s that supported hot-swap or tool-free drive exchange. The caddy slots into a matching bay chassis, connecting the installed drive to the system through the rear 40-pin IDE connector. This design allowed administrators to swap drives without opening the main chassis — useful for data backup rotation, drive mirroring, and system maintenance in environments running legacy IDE storage. The 40-pin IDE/ATA standard was the dominant desktop and server hard drive interface through the 1990s and into the early 2000s before SATA took over. These caddies are still sought after today for maintaining, restoring, or expanding vintage servers and workstations that rely on IDE storage infrastructure.
This Cybernet VP-15 IDE hard drive caddy tray (MR001002) has been inspected and is in good used condition. It was pulled from a working environment where it was previously in use. The beige plastic housing is intact with light surface wear consistent with normal use. The vented metal lid is present and fits correctly. Internally, the 40-pin IDE ribbon cable and Molex power connector are in place and appear undamaged. The ZEON 1004-A0 interface PCB is seated and shows no visible damage.
