I am thinking of getting a SSD but my case does not have any 3.5" bays (it is a Lian-Li with it's special hard drive bays) so where can I get an adaptor that will allow me to fit a 2.5" SSD in a 5.25" bay?
 
Hmm, I've had a look around and cannot find any single item to do this so suspect that you may have to go for 2 adaptors - 5.25" down to 3.5" and then 3.5" to 2.5"... hardly an elegant solution but all I can suggest.

Or, you could poss look at the bungee mod?

Have also seen somewhere on here someone who made an adaptor 'cage' (a la mechano style) to fit in a couple of 5.25" bays and mount several SSD's vertically... will post link if I can find it!


Ah, here's the linky
 
I had seen something like this for around £20:

The thread FaceplantSi linked to looks like a great solution! 8 SSD's in 2 drive bays, impressive if you ask me!!

But like other have said, you may need to get a 5.25" - 3.5" adapter and then use some other adapter to get it down to 2.5".

Or you could just sit it on somthing, stick it down with velcro or sticky pads haha. Not got any moving parts so its not like its going to cause noise vibrating or anything. Not the perfect solution, but would work fine for now
