Perfect product

- product delivered with 8 fixing screws and 4 small washers. - very affordable price - my Samsung 860 Evo 1Tb SSD fitted flat on the adapter without any problems (screws on the underside of the drive) and the airflow around the drive is good as the SSD holder is higher than the metal plate. - the adapter fitted without any problem in an old medium tower which has 2 vertical rails for HDDs with oblong holes for fixing the disks (my old tower looks like the "Advance GRAFIT" case).

Poorly designed product

The screws supplied do not fit in the side holes. The ones I had, used to fix rubber pads, don't fit either. In short, it was impossible to fit this adapter into the rails used to hold hard drives in my home.

        not always suitable

        To install the SSD in my HDD rack, I had to slightly enlarge the holes in the adapter to install the slides with mounting claws that came with my case. The adapter is very difficult to insert into the HDD rack, so I gave up trying to remove it. It was very difficult; it was practically stuck. Please note that I have never had any trouble installing hard drives on this case; the dimensions are standard, so I did not measure them.

        In conclusion, buy it if you are sure it will fit in your 3.5 slot and that you can screw it in or secure it with the case fasteners.

        As for ldlc's services, they were excellent. I ordered on Tuesday afternoon in the shop and it was delivered on Wednesday morning. 5/5 for service.

        2.5" / 3.5" adapter

        A simple item that is very easy to install, allowing for immediate and inexpensive operation.
        The item was exactly what I needed and matched the photo displayed.
        Thank you.

        Very good

        Buy in store. Top-notch service and customer care. No complaints. The rack isn't the right size (even though I measured my tower), but the fasteners/screws are strong enough to hold the SSD in place. So it's OK.

        Only the screws were useful.

        Simple and ideal for mounting 2.5-inch drives in a 3.5-inch bay. The only downside is the 100-character limit for comments.

        Good, choice of screws needs to be reviewed.

        This adapter allowed me to add an SSD, which is essential.
        It's not perfect, it comes with eight screws, four for fixing to the 3.5 bay and four for fixing the 2.5 drive to the adapter, these four didn't fit my Samsung QVO 870, fortunately I had screws.
        Generally, we have a lot of screws with PC tower cases.

        Can be adapted for use in a true 3"5 bay but not with the IB 170. Otherwise, delivery no problem.

        SSD adapter

        This device is not suitable for placing an SSD.
        Disappointed with the product, I am not returning it as the cost would be higher than the purchase price.
        I had to twist the part to get it to fit. I had to twist the part to get it to fit and the screws supplied were not suitable, fortunately I had what I needed.

        Not suitable for HDD case screws

        HDD screw pitches are generally 6-32 (large screw pitch): on this support, the classic 6-32 HDD screws don't fit, so it's impossible to use the quick screws on my case (Lian-Li). It's cheap, but we know why. Otherwise, LDLC delivery is fast and efficient.

        Does the job, but the fixing could be better

        I used this bracket to fix a 2.5 SSD in a space dedicated to a 3.5 drive. The fixing works, but I would have preferred to have the screw threads aligned with a 3.5 drive on the bracket rather than just having the space needed for it to be blocked by the screws, that would have been a more solid fixing.
        But it still works.

        The only downside is that you have to use a bit of force to screw the screws into the holes, as if they were designed for a different size of screw.

        once the drive is mounted, its connectors are not aligned in the standard way, which means that it cannot be used on a drawer.

        It's not possible to fix this adapter correctly in the slot of my old 3'5 HDD. What's more, the screw threads are too small compared to the screws that held my HDD in place.

        I was a bit confused by the sticker that said not to let the drive's printed circuit touch the metal
        until I realised that it only applies to mechanical discs. I was wrong there :)

        Very good.

        To install a Kingston 480GB SSD, once screwed on, fixed with two rilsans because of a slightly old case, a crash on switching on, recognised in the bios but not on the PC. After a tour of the disk management, ok, used to store games, does its job, very responsive, lifespan? Asus P8 card,2500K,1650, Windows 10, for 1080 games, sufficient.

        not universal and needs a lot of modification

        I bought this adapter to fit the new Kingston SSD A400 480GB into the 3.5" HDD slot of my Lenovo C40-30 all-in-one PC (with a tool-less opening and changing system for hard disk and ram!!).
        I first had to give up on fitting two of the original rubber block silents on my computer out of the 4 available because the centre distance of the holes for screwing this adapter to the computer did not correspond to the centre distance between holes of my original Western Digital HDD! Fortunately the holes to fix the silents blocks to the computer are oblong so by deforming and not wedging them as it should be it goes through as well as it can!

        Secondly, the long oblong holes to fix the ssd to the adapter don't allow to install the sata port close enough to the edge and the sata cable of the computer being a 90° angled plug, the assembly can't be put in place without a dremel cut of a part of the adapter to let the cable go towards the motherboard !

        in short it is expensive paid for a vulgar adapter not very universal!

        The product is well finished but I couldn't find the right hole spacing on the adapter to fit a crucial 2.5" SSD in a 3.5" rack in my tower (HP Prodesk)... Furthermore, when I looked closely I realised that one of my 3.5" slots also had screw holes for a 2.5" drive (it's written in very small letters)...

        So the equipment is unusable and useless for my personal case.

        Side mounting holes do not fit a 3.5" DD

        There are only 2 holes instead of 3 to put this chassis in place of a 3.5" hard drive
        Flat mounting on the new towers is possible
        From cheaper to more expensive by buying another 2 SSD bracket with 3 holes for a 3.5" HDD

        Does its job... but not in all cases.

        This 2.5" to 3.5" adapter cradle does its job... but not in all cases because it is not as long as a 3.5" drive and when you want to integrate it in a computer that only offers a fixing at both ends of a 3.5" drive you can only fix two screws (out of the four usually used). It still works, but it is not satisfactory (the cradle can move).
        Fixing the 2.5" disc to the cradle can only be done from underneath the disc (but, as far as I know, all 2.5" discs offer this type of fixing) using the gutters of the cradle which allows to adapt to any spacing. All screws are supplied.

        Perfect product

        - product delivered with 8 fixing screws and 4 small washers.
        - very affordable price
        - my Samsung 860 Evo 1Tb SSD fitted flat on the adapter without any problems (screws on the underside of the drive) and the airflow around the drive is good as the SSD holder is higher than the metal plate.
        - the adapter fitted without any problem in an old medium tower which has 2 vertical rails for HDDs with oblong holes for fixing the disks (my old tower looks like the "Advance GRAFIT" case).

        Not hdd2.5" compatible

        The screw holes do not correspond to the 2.5" format, so it is impossible to attach a hdd to it.

        Perfect article.

        I've been using this adapter for some time now and it's been a pleasure to use it for my Samsung SSD.
