I'm looking for a 2.5" to 5.25" bay adapter or bracket. I've seen a few 2.5" to 3.5" adapters (for SSD or otherwise), but no 2.5" to 5.25"...
Even most of the cheap 2.5"->3.5" adapters currently seem to be out of stock at Newegg. See here, here or here. The only cheap one currently available is this one and it seems decidedly less secure than the rest... More importantly, less likely to fit securely into a tool-less bay. I've also seen a few 3.5" to 5.25" brackets like this one, along with others I've seen locally that are meant for floppy drives or media card readers (I think I even have an old beige one myself).
What I'm really looking for however is a 2.5" to 5.25" adapter so I can stick my SSD (which really doesn't require much cooling) outside of the path of the main intake fan and free up more airflow for the rest of the case... Has anyone seen such an adapter?
I suppose that at 'least two of the aforementioned adapters could fit and be stuck together to form a 2.5" to 5.25" bay... Tho I'd be paying $15 for something that has gotta cost like a dollar to make. At that point I'd rather just velcro the SSD I think, heh.
