Solid building; appears good Screw hole alignment First class adapter. My difficulty came with using it for a floppy/card reader unit (SYBA CL-CRD20061). Only way to get the holes to align was to have the drive recessed just a bit from the faceplate (not a big situation - looks fine). Nonetheless, only one screw hole on every side line up. This enables some play in the drive in use when pressing a floppy or card into the unit. Most likely more a difficulty with the reader than the bracket. Also, the reader requires metal screws and not the regular case screws. Solved with a handful of tacks of super glue along the aides and bottom of the drive exactly where speak to is produced with the adapter. |

Fits snug. Slim style. Couldnt be easier to set up the drive. None It's an external enclosure, so it's pretty difficult to screw up. |

Solid nicely made tray. Lots of additional screws. None This doesn't not consist of attachments for your specific brand of situation so if you want to install it in 1 of the five.25 bays make sure your have those parts from the manufacture of your case. |

Fits the Corsair 800D situation like it was made for it. The black brushed steel matches the 800D's finish quite properly. None My friend even believed that my situation came with it and when I told him it was an add on he was shocked that it wasn't plastic garbage like most the other people and that it matched up so nicely. |

Great solid piece of metal. Wish I located it earlier in my develop. Require great light to make certain it all lines up. I built a nas and a esxi host and necessary to conserve some drive space, and in the host I was working with 2.five drives. Only poor aspect was I identified this in the course of the tail finish of my make, and it would have been a lot additional handy had I found it earlier. |

- Works with several items, two.5, 3.5, HDD, SSD, catf readers...you name it- fit incredibly snug in my Enermax box and then tied down really effectively with existing case hardware- I know they are about 14.00 far more than the common adapter brackets, but they are so considerably more solid and look so much greater None |

Well built. Lots of unique screws if you want them. A little tight getting the screws into the three.5 inch. Didn't like spending as considerably for the case as the item I was installing but looks nice. |

Quality item, all metal. A wide variety of screws for various mountings. I bought this due to the fact I had to use a 5.25" bay for the ASUS P8P67 deluxe front 3.5" USB 3. panel. This fits it just fine. Scratches a bit uncomplicated. A magnetic screwdriver IS quite useful when putting a 3.five" to five.25"...I did not use one, but it requires patience and a steady hand (remember the game "Operation"?) |

Awesome excellent; it's metal all over. I employed this converter to install a AFT XM-5U Memory Card Reader in a Antec Three-Hundred Case. It all fit and aligned perfectly, good color match too (easy I guess with black on black). None As other reviewers stated I did locate that I had to turn it seemingly upside-down in order for the screws to align. When I did although, it fit perfectly. I see what other people mean about a magnetic screwdriver being necessary but that's hardly a con. |

Solid aluminum, no cheapo plastic here! Predrilled holes to fit a wide assortment of applications. I applied 2 of these for a 3.5" card reader and a USB 3. bracket. My case had all 5.25" openings (Corsair 600T), and this black model is an superb match. Receiving the screws in can be a real juggling act. Wish I had telekinesis!! Ended up employing a modest piece of masking tape to temp-stick the screw to the driver bit. Almost everything fit perfectly, just a discomfort getting the screws in place to get started threading them in. |

Great color match for a Corsair 640D. Wish the Corsair had a three.five bay, but this will do. I wish someone could come up with a way to make it simpler to attach the 3.5 inch device in the tray. The acrobatics you have to do to align the screw and get it in are frustrating. |

NOT PLASTIC. HIGH Excellent. lots of screw. work as described and totally worth it. Tricky to install... You Ought to HAVE MAGNETIC cross screwdriver. I didnt have magnetic screwdriver... so I was barely installed my three.five card leader to this one. But I am satisfied now. If you consider to obtain it, what are you waiting for? |

Fits something 2.five inch Screw holes are difficult to get at N/A |
- Aluminum- Converted the bay to three.five"- ALSO Converts to 2.5" Not what I used it for even though- I used this to install a card reader in my NZXT Phantom- Higher, higher, higher good quality. - It was Extremely really hard to slip a screw into position to tighten down my card reader. But honestly, this is so minor... I adore this converter and I will HANDS DOWN use it once more... I'm shocked more men and women haven't attempted it. Quit thinking about it and acquire it. The high quality surpasses that of the plastic lame ones. This thing performs wonderful in tooless styles.IF IT DOESN'T Look LIKE IT'S GOING TO Work, FLIP IT UPSIDE DOWN. That's what I had to do, it tripped me out at 1st. Great item, would suggested to friends and loved ones.
