Review on πŸ”§ ICY DOCK Flex-FIT Trio MB343SP: Dual 2.5" HDD/SSD + One 3.5" HDD/Device Front Bay to External 5.25" Bay SSD Mounting Bracket by Amber Hickman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Please see the 5.25 " drive cage requirements for this mount

I have a fairly sleek gaming case, the CORSAIR Vengeance C70, and I wanted to buy a mount adapter to mount both of my Samsung To fit SSDs in the 5.25 bay so I can remove the standard internal drive bays on the bottom of the case to improve airflow. I love the concept of this ICY DOCK Mount Adapter Kit and wish it would work for me, but unfortunately this product protrudes too far forward that I can't even cover the front compartment cover. I don't know how anyone missed this, or maybe my case has serious clearance requirements to hide internals, but this is just extremely frustrating and I have to look for a new dual mount adapter in the 5.25 slot. Since I believe 5.25 drives have fairly standard distance specifications between the screw locations and the front edge of the bay, I can safely say that if your 5.25 drive's bay cover depth requirements exceed 1" (I need 1 .25 inches), then forget it. Trying to cover the bay, it collides with the mount. I would like the ICY DOCK to make the mount shorter to fit my suitcase or have an adjustable sliding mechanism so I can pull the whole set deeper into the suitcase.
