Need to fit my SSD drive in my case but cannot find an adapter plate for sale like the one that came shipped with Intels X25-M

I have bought 2 different one's so far but they are no good (akasa and ocuk's value one)

Does anyone have any ideas?

When you say no good, what's wrong with them?

They don't work with my case as the harddrives are screwed into the case carriers via 4 screws at the base of the harddrive and the adapters I tried convert 2.5 to 3.5 but mainly for the side mounts, I'll show you, here's what I mean

As you can see the only way to mount the drive is via the 4 screws at the base of the harddrive and sadly not even two of the screws line up to allow it's fitting in the image above

This is a standard 3.5 drive and show's how it is needed to be screwed on

If you can take some sizes off the one you have Im pretty sure I could make you one something like this ...

That would be really good, if you could make one I'll sort you out, would just need the same size as a normal 3.5 hhd but with hole's to mount the ssd drive

Yep matey, 62mm width and 76mm long ;)

Need to make sure the screw holes to mount the caddy to my case carrier are the same as a normal 3.5 HDD mind

p.s could I have it so that the ssd is not sticking out the end of the case carrier like yours though, either flush or set in abit?

Hi

I`m also planning on buying a SSD and the Coolermaster RC-1100 Cosmos S case, so does this mean no current 2.5" to 3.5" Hard Drive adapter plate will work on any SSD in this case???

Thanks for responding.

The cosmos s 1100 is different to my case, you'll be alright as that case has something like 12 drive bays that you can mount by the sides of an ssd caddy, my case attatchs the harddrives by the screws on the underneath

I've measured and the 3.5 drive sticks out 8mm from the back of the case carrier mate
 
Hey mate! I received it this morning! I love it! It's absolutely perfect but i have one little problem with it, the screw hole's high-lighted below are to small for the screws from my case's carrier, the screw size i needed is the same as a 3.5 inch drive but however the one's in the caddy are a bit smaller (the same as the side screws of an ssd drive)

Would it be possible to make more for me with the 3.5 HDD size thread if so I would like 5 more and I will give you £20 via paypal gift?

If you can, just send one first and I'll make sure its right and then send 4 more if you would be so kind

Let me know mate and thanks ever so much for your help!

Here some pic's

yeah cool mate I'll send it back so you can copy it, I sort of managed to force the screws I need to use in and it has chip round the thread a bit but the screws didn't make it through :s I'll send you a screw with it that I need to use with it so you can get the thread right, there specially long screws with a wide head as the case carrier has rubber dampers

Send me your address and I'll get it posted back you ya mate, cheers!
