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.

        That's great.

        I had a bit of trouble putting the 2 together at first, but with a bit of thought, it worked really well.
        LDLC I've always counted on you and I'm always right :)

        No problem at all

        This is the second one I've bought. Very good value for money. It enabled me to recover an old laptop hard drive and install it on a desktop PC to keep the data.

        For removable 3.5" rack

        Adapter used in a pull-out server rack to replace a 3.5" platter drive with an equivalent SSD. Installation is straightforward and screws and bolts are supplied.

        An adapter that doesn't fit any PC: the holes don't fit every time

        Correct product

        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.

        not 100/100 compatible

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

        Cradle not 100% compatible

        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 didn't have a place to put my ssd in my tower, but that's solved with this adapter.
        installs easily, the ssd is very stable on it.

        I bought this adapter for a 2.5" HDD/SSD in order to place it in a 3.5" bay. I have nothing to complain about: the item does its job perfectly. What's more, it complies with the description and photo shown. I'm completely satisfied.

        Very easy to use for installing an SSD in a 3.5" drive bay.
        Easy to fit using the screws supplied.
        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 :)

        Corrugated sheet

        It's hard to find fault with a simple sheet of corrugated metal with a hole in it, given that I'd checked beforehand whether it was compatible with my enclosure.

        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!

        Wrong format + ultimately useless.

        The product is well finished but I could not find the hole spacing on the adapter to correctly fit a crucial 2.5" SSD into a 3.5" rack in my tower (HP Prodesk)...

        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.

        Rack 3.5 for SSD 2.5

        I gave it the lowest rating because it doesn't fit all cases. Personally, to install the SSD, I had to turn to a rack I found in a shop near me which did the job very well.
        The case it doesn't fit into is one where the hard drive cage needs an adapter to hold the whole thing (RACK + SSD) in the hard drive cage, and the same goes for the mechanical HDD, which needs this adapter to hold the HDD in the cage.

        Not so universal...

        I bought this adapter to put an SSD in a 21" iMac initially equipped with a classic 1to 3.5" HDD.
        As it's an all-in-one, it doesn't have a classic "Slide-in" bay to fix its hard drive but only 4 holes corresponding to the 4 external holes of the hard drives. This adapter is not longer than a 2.5" drive. The distance between these 4 external holes (in length) is smaller by +- 1cm and therefore does not fall in front of the holes of my computer and I had to cobble together a small thin aluminium bar to be able to fix it correctly. Not very professional but functional.
        Having said that, at 5€ a piece of metal, the minimum would have been to mention this potential problem although making a standard size basket would not have been a luxury either.

        Not suitable

        I tried to mount a 2.5" SSD in the 3.5" slot of my mid-2008 iMac
        I have to say that I was very pleased with the quality of the product and the price, but I have to say that I was very pleased with the quality of the product and the price.
        I gave it one star because the price is right and the delivery is fast, and also because there is a low probability that it is coming from my computer (for the computer side), the rest is clearly not suitable for the hardware it claims to host.
        I didn't send it back because of the price.

        The SSD is an indispensable adapter and has found its place. The small drawback that made me drool

        The adapter is too short for my computer.
        I would rate it 10/10 because I may not have chosen the right product for my PC.

        Perfect

        Good quality adapter, delivered with its screws (8 screws, 4 for the SSD and 4 for the bay fixing) and its insulating washers (4), the SSD fits perfectly in the adapter, and the adapter in the 3.5" bay, sufficiently spaced from the original HDD.

        Not compatible with Firecuda 1TB Ssd

        I received the product, no instructions or anything to go with it, but it doesn't matter.
        The rack is simply too big for a 2.5" Ssd. The screw holes don't match. I don't want to bother screwing it in with just one screw, let alone taping it down. That'll teach me to want to spend as little as possible.

        Bracket

        Good product, no problem mounting a Samsung 860 Evo SSD in a LIAN LI case. LDLC delivery always perfect, nothing to complain about!

        Not bad

        It is true that the thread for the side fixing screws is a bit tight.
        But if you force them before assembly, everything goes well.
