Anyone have this case and successfully installed an SSD?

Having problems :S

Tell uncle stewie what the problem is.

Haha, right well.

There is an SSD bay, above the 4 rail bays.

My ssd does not slot in to it, if it does then it is at an angle due to different heights of the pins within each side of the bay.

Looking at that there are just two screw holes on one side, its not a sort of " wedge it in there" and it stays there with just two screws used to secure it job?

I see what you're saying. Will give it a try when I can.

Thanks for your help, this is my second build in 5 years so still very much a rookie

Or does something screw into that side of the ssd and it helps it rest or sit on top of that metal flap?

Then two screws on the side facing inside the case?

Hmm the only extra accessories that came with the case are brackets for the HDD's. It may just be the two screws

do the pins on the right slot into the screw holes on the SSD and you just fix the SSD using the 2 screws on left
