5.25" Dual Bay to Multiple 3.5" Internal?

Le_Petit_Lapin · 25 Nov 2016 at 15:01

Hey guys,

What do you call those wee adaptors that you get that convert a pair of 5.25" external bays to a rack that takes multiple (usually 3 IIRC) 3.5" HDD drives internally?

I tried looking for them under the name "Caddy" but that just brings up a bunch of hot-swappable racks, which is surplus to requirements, I'll not be pulling the drives in and out ever.

Do OCUK sell them, just in their plain, non-hotswappable form? Its entirely possible I'm just getting old and not looking in the right part of the site.

Thanks in advance if anyone can help me out.

hard drive adaptors?

It's called an internal hard drive bay kit.

Something like this:

Best product I've managed to find to match the description is the Evercool HD-AR-BK. Most of these are usually 3x bays for 4x disks to allow for some air around the drives but that one does the 3 into 2. Not found a UK supplier for them but it should give some ideas of terms to look for.
