🖥️ Kingwin SSD HDD Mounting Kit Internal - Convert 3.5” SSD or HDD to 5.25 Inch Drive Bay - Includes Mounting Screws, Quick Installation [HDM-229] Review

Very thoughtful design. I needed to access my RGB controller's buttons WITHOUT OPENING THE CASE. I installed the RGB control box on this bracket and routed the fan cables from the side of this bracket to the controller. There is enough space for the cables in the side grooves of the bracket so that they do not fall into the holes. Wallaa! Now I can reach back, press the RGB control buttons, and change the lighting scheme without opening the case! The RTB controller attaches securely to the…

I bought this to install an SSD boot drive for my OpenMediaVault home NAS. Since I used the middle tower for the necessary drive bays (I have 10 SATA ports that I want to be able to use!), I needed a good place for my boot drive and didn't use the card slots on the back. except for the "upper part" with the ITX board. This was a great solution even though my case has a 2.5" mounting option at the bottom as it partially interferes with the 3.5" bay. Granted, I use this system side-by-side in a…

Ordered this to install four replacement laptop hard drives in my media server. The packaging was a simple plastic bag with a cardboard label inside bubble wrap. Considering the rigidity of the mount, this shouldn't be a huge problem. However, due to the U-shape of the bracket, there may be some bending during transportation due to rough handling during transportation. Installation is simple and straightforward. This bracket is not suitable for larger 15mm enterprise drives. I only had one…

This is an overview of the 2-piece metal bracket from 3.5 HDD/SSD to 5.25. The brackets were a bit tricky to properly attach to the hard drive. Not only were the screws difficult to keep in place when screwing them in, but there was no obvious best way to secure them. I had to install and uninstall a few times, but even then the final configuration wasn't optimal. In my opinion, the disc goes too far into the housing. Overall I'd say it's worth a few bucks more to get a one-piece mount that has

I wanted to remove the CD drive and replace it with a second hard drive in my thin ThinkCentre. Lenovo's proprietary hard drive cage is overpriced and hard to find, so I figured it would work well enough. My Western Digital hard drive fit snugly in the center of this adapter, but inserting it into the computer case wasn't easy. Lenovo CD-ROM drives use a spacer that slides and snaps along the drive to maintain tension in the 5.25-inch drive bay. It can be removed without tools, but there are no

This Kingwin Tech Internal 3 x 2.5" x 5.25" HDD Metal Adapter is a very slim bracket. That worked great for me. There are some things you should know; Continue reading! I had to install a couple of SSDs (each of my 6 SATA ports is used) and it was perfect.1. The SSD which was on the bottom uses ONLY the bottom screws to secure it.2. I skipped the middle which had room to connect/remove cables and installed another SSD on top.3. Both the middle and top slots use side screws for attachment…
