Fits perfectly and works as expected.

I consider this a purchased product for my own use, not for review or free of charge. Although it looks like a simple adapter, it really is. Measurements are critical and hard drive vibration can be a big problem. I've tried two caddies before, one was a bit smaller so it didn't fit the laptop well when moving around in the laptop. the other has some hard drive vibration isolation issues, while 2.5-inch drives are usually very quiet and stable. Some 7200 rpm discs vibrate noticeably when turning up and down. loose and not rigid. The support also for the hard drive was stable and good enough to hold the hard drive, I've tried 7K2 and 5K4 drives with no problems. " adapter) and it fits perfectly and since it's just a passive adapter it works great at full SATA 3.0 speeds. Now for some negative thoughts: the LED might be too bright and there's no way to adjust the brightness or even a basic on/off button The bezel was also very difficult to remove to match the original laptop bezel but it fit well, one of the plastic retaining tabs was very tight and the other came off very easily and only had to be installed once but you can be careful as it has some hard edges.

Pros
  • Note: Customers must remove the optical drive bezel (bezel) and reuse the bracket on the cart for proper operation!!!
Cons
  • Piggy Bank Price
