Questions & Answers

If you turn each half upside down, will it lay flat? I'd like to use them as drive risers in order to help with ventilation - I haven't been able to come up with anything suitable. ?

I don't think these will help you achieve your goal. There isn't a lot of room for air to move around.

Is this compatible with a hard disk drive (HDD)? My grade is a three. In my system, I have a total of 5 bays. ?

From a 5.25-inch hard drive to a 3.25-inch hard drive. Bay of 5 inches. Yes, I believe so. The SSD would be able to fit in the two slots. Because there are five HDD bays, the opposite should be true.

Will this work as a case guard mount for standard hard drives on a roswill rise case?

I'm not familiar with the Roswill case, but if the screw spacing on the side of a Drive is standard (2 3/8in and 4in), they should fit. br>Standard small modern solid state drives (2 3/4in by 4in) attach to the brackets with four provided screws that go through the brackets and into the drive's bottom. They are not designed for any size older spin-up drives. A small size spindle could be used to make a mediocre attachment (only two screws). - Drive up. jmcgrat3

Can these be used as a hard drive shelf in the Optiplex 7020 tower because the cheap blue plastic caddies don't slide in and are easily broken?

Probably not; those blue things have a series of catches that allow them to click into place, and you'd be better off tossing them out and cramming your hard drive into the slot without one.

These are excellent value for money; however, as another reviewer pointed out, the side holes are not the same thread as those found on a 3

3/5

5" hard drive, which makes mounting in older cases difficult because it won't fit unless you cross-mount it. re-thread or the bracket should be threaded They're threaded for an M3 screw, which is common on 2. 3. 5 inch hard drives UNC 6 is the most common drive format for 5" drives. Because the rails I have have built-in screws that I can't replace, I'm forced to cross thread. This, in my opinion, is a major oversight.

I was too oblivious to read the reviews

3/5

It's my fault that I didn't read the reviews before purchasing these. I would have known they weren't tapped for "normal" HD screws if I had read the comments. I was fortunate in that one of the two I received was close enough that I was able to mount it. I'll have to get a new one because the second one is garbage. br>br>On the other hand, your smaller drive will be centered, which can be a problem if your cable guides expect the connectors to be flush to one side like they are on a "normal" 3. I should have looked at these for a longer period of time.

The price is great, but the fit could be better

3/5

These drive bay adapters are hard to beat for price and simplicity, and they come with all the fasteners you (should) require. That's the good news; the problem is that I've encountered far too many instances where these adapters simply do not fit. They won't fit Dell desktops, for example, because they use tool-less installation. because these adapters mount the 2. less, plastic drive sleds Many of those drive sleds require that the drive be off to one side, and the cables can only reach the 2. If the connectors are close to the sled's edge, it'll be a 5" drive. These sleds' screw holes are also too small for tool-free assembly. I've had mixed results with these adapters in SFF desktops due to the lack of drive holding studs. Adapters for off-the-shelf drives br>br> The SSD is usually placed in the center of the raised compartment, which allows for a more universal fit.
