Hey guys, Ive just recieved my OCZ vertex 4 ssd. Its fast as hell. Do you guys know where i can get somethin that can house it in my comp. The space is as wide as a cd/dvd rom. Which is a lot bigger than 2.5" I tend to use ebuyer. But dont know what i need to make my ssd to fit in the gap. Andy
you want a 5 1/4 > 2.5" bay adapter , although it`ll be easier to find a floppy bay adaper (3.5>2.5) http://www.ebuyer.com/search?sort=price+ascending&q=ssd+adapter&cat=386&page=1
You don't necessarily need to fasten it at all, since it doesn't vibrate. Mine just hangs from the cables in the 5.25" bay. Or if in doubt, you could try velcro.
On ebay they sell the 5 1/4 to 2.5" bays fairly cheap. Normally a bit cheaper than online pc component suppliers
Take your pick. http://www.amazon.co.uk/s/?ie=UTF8&...vpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=b&ref=pd_sl_5aylc4skkq_b I have a set of item 5 and a 6 and a 19.
Just drill an extra hole if you need to and use 2 bolts on one side. It's not as if they are heavy so it is perfectly fine to secure it that way.
