Does any one know if this will work with a 2.5" SSD, I plan on putting in a desktop?

I don't see why it wouldn't . Only issue that's had was the ribbon was short on my MacPro. I have a Bluray burner/player hooked up with no problems.

That's exactly what I did, used the adapter to put the SSD on the desktop. Further, I had a cable to allow two hard drives so I was able to copy the existing hard drive to the SSD using the Linux software Clonezilla. Then removed & retired the existing hard drive as a backup.

That's where I'm using it. It is in a tiny Foxconn AT-7500 which makes a wonderful desktop work computer. It will go anywhere a standard SSD will fit.

I installed a Crucial M500 120GB SSD SATA 3 2.5" Hard Drive and it is working well. It has to be 2.5". Not sure on SATA 2.

No, this will not work for any situation in which the connectors have to line up with where they would be, compared to a 3.5" desktop hard drive. In order for this to work, they need to offer a new product where the mount puts the SSD to the side of the tray instead of centering it.

If you are refering to an SSD slot, then yes. you use included adapter to slip a 2.5" ssd into a 3.5 bay slot

If it is a desktop it will. I dont see why it shouldnt. This works like any other harddrive but faster and with less space than most common harddrives nowdays

This should be compatible with it. Any 2.5 HDDs I have used have been compatible with it.

It should work....depends somewhat on what your motherboard setup is like. The SSD is 2.5" so if it going in a laptop should most likely slip right in. If its going in a desktop, will probably need an adapter to get it properly attached. Depending on the speed of your SATA on the motherboard you might not get the full speed benefit from this drive......but no doubt it will be a lot faster than a mechanical drive. Need to be sure your board is SATA so power and data fittings are same compatible between the board and drive

Greetings, No, this model does not support a 2.5" drive. The 'H' models will support 2.5" drive expansion; not currently available in the US. Best regards, MITXPC

I installed a Samsung 840 products ssd and it works great. Also, the included ram is inaccessible, however there are 2 empty slots easily accessible to add up to 8 more gb.

probably not, it's slightly thicker than a normal 2.5" HDD. I wouldn't suggest buying one anyway. I had 2 fail on me virtually out of the box.

You should use the power adapter with 3.5" drives. You really don't need to with 2.5" drives

SSD's are available as 2.5 inches for laptops and 3.5 inches for desktops. This case features drive bays of 3.5 inch and 5.25 inch. I did notice an MATX desktop case (Roswill, I think it was) while I was browsing last week, which also accomodated the smaller 2.5 drives in addition to 3.5, and 5.25.

I haven't tried this myself, but if you have an empty expansion card slot, there are brackets that can be used to house a 2.5 inch SSD drive where a card would otherwise go. Amazon sells one made by Syba and one by StarTech. Also if your motherboard supports M.2, you can get your SSD in that form factor and save yourself a bay.

I'm very sure it will work with SSDs but you probably won't get the performance you expect. It would be more economical to get much cheaper HDDs.

3.5" is desktop, 2.5" is laptop, there are caddies that will allow you to mount a 2.5" disk on a desktop, since the SATA connectors are the same

No it will not. Most, if not all, SSD's will fit in a laptop bay out of the box. This product is to make a laptop hard drive fit in a desktop bay.
