Review on 🔌 CableDeconn Dual Mini SAS SFF-8088 to SAS36P SFF-8087 Adapter with PCI Bracket by Brandon Wynen

The full height bracket on this adapter will not work if your motherboard has any tall components near the edge of the board near the bracket. Every other expansion card I have to compare against has a flat section at least 2cm wide at the bottom to fit in the gap between the motherboard and the case. Sometimes the entire mount is flat (obviously until it reaches the top where the screw enters). But most have a flat part of about 2cm and then about 10cm where there is a small edge that is bent inwards at a 90 degree angle to add structural strength. In this case, the flat part is only 1 cm and the groin part extends down a full 11 cm. where the screw goes. And the rim is a bit thick too: it protrudes about 4mm from the main face of the mount. Many other cards I've measured are only about 3mm thick. If there are any components on your motherboard where this ledge should be, then you will crush that component when you try to screw that expansion card into the case. On mine, the bracket isn't exactly 90 degrees from the PCB like you might expect, and then part of the edge of the bracket isn't exactly 90 degrees to the rest of the bracket. So the protrusion and the board are not parallel. So if you're examining the motherboard for anything that might get in the way, try to be careful about where you think the protrusion might go. It will probably be a bit further than one would expect to the next expansion slot.
