Review on Metal HDD/SSD Mounting Bracket Kit - Micro Connectors L02-250, Single 2.5 inch by Reginald Sealy

Revainrating 4 out of 5

1 screw is not enough.

The idea and design of this product is really good and useful. I have a lot of 3.5" hard drives and inherited a beautiful machine that only had 4 drive bays. With this product I was able to "mount" a hard drive into open slots on the system! I don't know how often this happens but the problem I see is that if only 1 screw hole is used the weight of the 3.5" drive mounted on it will make it wobble at best which can be dangerous if it breaks goes. A small change in design to add a second screw hole (this fills 2 slots in the card slot) will greatly strengthen this product. In general I'm happy with that on a non-critical machine playing a non-critical role. I managed to "add" another drive and am happy with the solution.
