![Sabrent 3.5-Inch to x2 SSD / 2.5-Inch Internal Hard Drive Mounting Kit [SATA and Power Cables included] (BK-HDCC)](https://images-eu.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/71pvWI-+HgS._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
First things first, this does what it says on the tin. After figuring out how the heck to fit a slim ODD into it (hint: use the angled part of the drive), I noticed two things. Firstly, the air grate (?) that comprises the bottom half of the front panel isn't fixed in place. It's held there by friction alone it seems, and any nudge will make it move inwards on one side or the other. To fix this, you either need to open up the PC to push it back from the inside, or use tweezers or similar to pull it back into place. I'll get around to gluing it, I'm sure.
Secondly, the ODD drawer won't close unless it's pushed from a particular part of the chassis. That might be particular to my drive, but I didn't experience the issue when it was still in the laptop. Perhaps the mount is changing the shape of the drive slightly to fit it, and this is having a side effect.
I've since also mounted an SSD 2.5" drive underneath the ODD, and this gets screwed in place from the underside. That was pretty painless, and the location means it's just above the rest of the HDDs.
So, it does what it says on the tin, but not nicely. If that tin were of fence paint, it would protect the wood and have a nice even coat, but be an odd shade of snot.
