Dual-Bay 2.5" to 3.5" Drive Adapter

This metal bracket installs two 2.5 inch SATA SSDs or HDDs into a single standard 3.5 inch drive bay. The solid frame improves heat dissipation and reduces vibration during continuous multi-drive operation. A complete kit with red SATA data cables, SATA power cables and mounting screws enables one-step installation without extra parts.

For DIY Builders With Spare 3.5" Bays

Suits PC assemblers, server expanders and hardware repair technicians converting notebook-style drives for desktop use. Buyers whose cases lack a free 3.5 inch bay cannot use this bracket. It also does not support drives thicker than 9.5 mm or interfaces other than SATA.

Fits 7 mm and 9.5 mm 2.5" SATA Drives

The bracket accepts common 7 mm and 9.5 mm height 2.5 inch SATA solid-state drives and mechanical hard drives. Securing both drives to the frame and mounting the assembly into the bay is the single step that determines compatibility.

Questions about this item

How do I install the two 2.5 inch drives into the metal bracket and then into my 3.5 inch bay?

Fasten each 2.5 inch SSD or HDD to the bracket using the supplied screws, slide the assembled unit into a free 3.5 inch drive bay and secure it, then connect the included red SATA data cables and SATA power cables to each drive and the motherboard.

What maintenance or replacement will the bracket and cables need over time?

The metal bracket itself requires no scheduled maintenance; inspect the red SATA data cables and SATA power cables periodically for connector wear or cable damage and replace any cable that shows bent pins, cracked insulation or intermittent detection.

What is the first limit I will hit when running both drives continuously in the bracket?

The bracket supports drives up to 9.5 mm thick, so the physical height of the 2.5 inch drives is the primary constraint; ensure each drive measures 7 mm or 9.5 mm to fit correctly and maintain the improved heat dissipation the metal frame provides.
