SSD adapter

Wynnie12

Started my first build but can't find a place to put my Ssd. I presume I need to put it in a 3.5" adapter but where can I find one? Went to pc world but no luck. Any ideas?

What case do you have?

There arent any moving parts in an ssd, and they are very light, so for the time being just a touch of duct tape or blue tack or what have you will doo the job

You don't need to put it anywhere, really. For ages I've had SSDs just hanging from cables and they're fine. At the moment I have mine velcro'd to the back of my motherboard tray, just to keep it out of the way.

I've the outlaw which is the reverse of that case. Mines hidden in the cable managment portion behind the drive cage. Easy.

I had some adhesive Velcro that I used on mine. Worked a treat.

Is there no holes int he drive cage thatyou can secure and ssd to? Many cases dont have dedicated SSD cages, they are dual use for 3.5" and 2.5"" drives
