Akasa 3.5" Device/SSD/HDD Adapter | 5.25" to 3.5" Bay Adapter | 2.5/3.5 Inch Hard Drive Enclosure | SSD Mounting Bracket | for 5.25 inch PC Front Bay | AK-HDA-05

Fantastic Product - Fitted like a glove and all screws included and Great Price

Bit of a tight squeeze for a 3.5 HDD, but it's done the job, nice and secure, front panel looks smart.

Pros:+ good production quality+ front panel can be removed in stages - either the 2.5" slot or the whole front panel, meaning it can fit behind you case's front panel+ screws includedCons:- noneI used this to mount a 2.5" SSD in the 5.25" CD mount. Being able to take the front piece off of the adapter allowed me to fit it without having to take out the CD panel of the front of my case. Very easy to use with everything fitting perfectly. Recommended.

This is a plastic housing for a 3.5 inch drive in a 5.25 drive bay. I bought it because I had previously bought an Akasi 3.5 inch card reader, but stupidly didn't check for a free 3.5in slot in my PC.The construction is fine, the fitting is pretty tight, although you can see a little bit of space around the faceplate when the drive is mounted, but nothing serious. Fitting it was painless, and it comes with screws for a HDD and a card reader/floppy mount as well. No problems at all and cheap enough.

it works and I don't plan on returning it but the screw holes don't match up perfectly with the drive. if you're OK with functional and don't care so much about aesthetics it's perfectly adequate.

Decided to take out my old DVD drive, that I never use anymore, and add an SSD to my desktop machine. As the DVD drive was SATA, the cables were already there. Five minute job to remove the old drive and replace with this adapter with an SSD mounted on it. Worked fine.

Feels pleasantly strong enough, 3.5 hard-drive fit snugly into place.I took off the front plate as I had intended to use my case's own dummy disk drive face-plate. Unfortunately it doesn't fit perfectly so the face-plate is now sticking out slightly (where as it wasn't without this caddy). No way to move the caddy further back because of where screw holes line up.I can live with it, from a distance it's not a problem, but it would have been nice if everything fit snug and flush.

Fits well and easy to connect 😌
