Not great

I don't know if it's me, but I couldn't mount my hard drive in the 5.25" bay correctly. I'm not sure if it's just me, but I couldn't get my hard drive to fit properly in the 5.25" bay. I don't know which way to put the fasteners. I don't recommend this product

        A little uncomfortable to install

        Not a very complicated part. Once installed, it's perfect, but the match between the screw holes and the "through" holes is a bit limited, the screwdriver doesn't go straight in.

        Perfect for mounting a 3.5" HDD in a 5.25" BAY!

        Hello,

        I bought a duplicate product in order to fit two 3.5" hard drives in the unused 5.25" bays (because who needs 4 DVD players in their tower these days?)

        I'm not sure how to use it, but if you think about it, you'll get it right in the end.

        Thanks a lot to LDLC for the fast and impeccable shipping.

        Fast delivery

        I order from LDLC for their fast delivery and very efficient after sales service.
        The prices are not the lowest of the mail order sites but the small price difference is justified by their impeccable service.

        does the job

        You have to think a bit to put it all together in the right way (I did it on the second try...) but for the price you can't find better!

        Good

        Does what it is asked to do. I would have appreciated a little more attention to the manufacturing process so that the screws would fit without undue effort.

        Good basic product

        Good basic product, but the lack of instructions meant I had to figure out the assembly myself, hence my 9/10. I managed to do it anyway.
        I'm not sure if I'm going to be able to use it for the first time, but I'm sure I'll be able to use it for the second time if I'm going to use it for the third time.

        Compliant

        Product 100% as expected. Reasonable price. Fast and smooth delivery. Nothing to add.

        Simple and effective product

        I haven't used it yet. But at work I've already had the opportunity to use it and it's perfect for fitting 3 1/2 inch HDDs into 5 1/4 inch slots.
        I'm not sure if it's a good idea to use it, but it's a good idea to use it for a lot of other things. That is half the price of the products. I'm not sure if it's a good idea to buy a new one, but I'm sure it's a good idea to buy a new one.

        Adapted on request

        I have to say that the product is as I expected, but a small offset on one of the brackets did not allow me to insert a screw correctly. Otherwise nothing to say.

        Good but...

        It does the job, nothing to say about it. The installation was quick and easy.
        I agree with @k971 on this point "If there is anything to complain about with this kit it is the lack of silent-blocks with the supplied screws". The vibration noise when the hard drive is running can be quite annoying in the long run (although it's not that loud) but I'm getting used to it little by little. After all, for its price, I can still say that it is a good product.

        Does the job

        At this price and in comparison to the competition, I can only give it 5 stars. This kit allowed me to mount 3.5" hard drives in the 5.25" bays of my Corsair 760T case without any problems. If I have to criticize something to this kit it is the absence of silent-blocks with the supplied screws, "problem" quickly solved by recovering the unused silent-blocks of my case.

        impeccable

        Simple to fix, very adaptable, the accompanying screws are not complete, they only serve to fix the kit to the cage (4 screws) and cannot be used to fix the hard disks to the metal parts of the kit, the thickness of the parts must be taken into account when choosing these screws.

        perfect

        I have been using this product for a while now and it is very easy to use. It is very easy to assemble and the screws are perfectly maintained in place and are perfect in my medium filled atx tower (3 dd 3.5 + 2 dd 2.5 + 1 dvd writer 5.25 + cm atx + cv sapphire hd6950 all overclocked) to mount the hard drives on the 5.25 slots in order to free the air flow of the front fan. The only problem is that I ordered with the express delivery which arrived late (rather the responsibility of chronopost than ldlc) but ldlc offered to refund the difference with the normal delivery without making a fuss.

        3.5" Hard Drive Adapter not for SSD!!!

        Don't do as I did, this kit is suitable for 3.5 inch hard drives (desktop/fixed computer hard drives) to be mounted in place of a DVD drive, not for a 2.5 inch SSD or Laptop hard drive to a 3.5 bay!!!

        Of course the holes will not be facing each other and you will not get anything conclusive...

        Thanks LDLC for the free return!
