Based on an r210 II I’m currently doing up
- Orico HB-325 3.5 to 2.5 inch Hard Drive Caddy - don’t even bother. Could be useful in a CRU sled, but I don’t have a dell one to hand.
- SilverStone SDP08B 3.5" to 2 x 2.5" Drive Bay Converter Getting better, but all four screws don’t align in the dell caddy
- SilverStone SDP08B, 3.5" to 3 x 2.5" Drive Bay Converter Absolutely perfect.
random info I thought may be useful to others
I’m suddenly reminded of a mate who suspended his hdd on a rubber band. It went very well until the PC environs destroyed the rubber. damned thing snapped half his DIMMs on the way down
well, a hard drive is a bad idea to just band in, those are heavy bois, a ssd though…
…is still a bad idea because the issue is an unstable mount ill suited to the environs
