Is there any way to eject SSD from this case?

Yes, but it involves a bit of work. I realized the same issue as well when it came time to eject.What worked for me was removing the swing arm with a Torx (star-shaped) screwdriver. From there you can see an opening on the case near the pins. Press gently on the drive and the drive will pop out nice and easy from there. Now when I copy drives, I make sure to leave the arm off. Good luck, hope this helps!

Yes, on the opposite end from the cable connector, there is a button that you must press and slide back to open the case. Then an "L" shaped enge opens allowing easy access to the SSD inside. Although the button and black sides are plastic, they are reinforced with metal for the actual locking mechanism. I was pleasantly surprised to see how secure it actually is and prevents accidental opening.

Not really. I had a 2.5 SSD that I wanted to boot from in this case, so I just used velcro to stick the 2.5 to the floor of the case and then put my 3TB 3.5 in the HDD enclosure.HTH

I would make sure to save the old drive just on case removing it causes more peoblems

Hi, Pollard. There are two switches, one is perpendicular to the other. To remove the drive you must unlock with the first, and then the second physically pushes the drive outward and slides out from the computer. To eject the drive you must first slide the unlock, hold and, while holding the lock, push the second slider.These sliders are on both sides of the corner rubber grip. press and hold the one closest to the outside of the computer first, then the one further in toward the computer.

I did not personally do this, but it should be possible. You would simply plug the adapter into the motherboard and run your cables from the adapter to the ssd. Hope this helps!

Mac user? Try dragging the drive's icon to the trash. Or select it and "force quit." If that fails, just turn off the whole computer with the main power switch and restart it in about 5 minutes. (I'm no computer expert, but these are the steps I'd take. If you're using a windows system, I would probably try the last option.) good luck

Sorry it took me a few days I had to find time to take mine apart and make sure. It does not have the connector on the motherboard. The pins to solder one on are there if you're handy with a soldering iron, but this should only be attempted if you have done this kind of thing before. A much easier, much safer way to add an SSD is to purchase an "Ultrabay hard drive" dock from e-bay ($20-25) and then you can swap out a hard drive or the extra graphics card when you need each one.

IIRC, there were some plastic clips about the length of the SSD with pegs that go in the screw holes of the SSD. It should slide in and lock to the 2.5" slots

Yes, it can be replaced. I have done it myself. As others already mentioned you will need a msata ssd

No, use your manufacture drive tool , third party software or simply reformat existing drive

I didn't use an SSD adapter. I attached it directly to the mounting bracket that comes with the case. There's a 3.5 drive directly below it. I used a few wire ties to keep the two sata cables together, and sort of folded them along with the power cable beneath the two drives. It's not exactly the neatest option, but the cables are out of the way at least.

The SSD is not soldered, but the RAM is. There is 1 screw holding the SSD down, and this kit provides the screwdriver to remove it.

No to both questions. It is theoretically possible to do the SSD thing if you are an knowledgeable disassembler, because there is not removeable panel for the hard drive. RAM is out of the question, because it is soldered in, not in a clip. Sounds like you want a different product.

It is time consuming to reinstall Windows. I suggest you to use disk copy software to migrate to SSD.

I once talked to a fellow on the amazon message boards and he told me he had managed to take the stock hard drive out and put in an ssd. That's what he told me he did. I took his word for it and maybe you should too. But it was just his word so proceed with caution. It might void the warranty if you do swap the hard drives out.

As long as it is a SATA and not EIDE drive you can use this case. If you are not going to use the drive any longer you can also remove it from the enclosure and directly plug into mainboard on your computer to try a recovery.

They are indistinguishable to the computer, the drive appears as one disk. It uses the SSD at-will, and you have no control over it.
