Simply install this adapter frame and converter into the 3.5" slot on your desktop or you can use it like a 3.5" drive in a 3.5" converter!
2.5" drives only need a fraction of the energy needed by a 3.5" drive and a voltage supply of just 5V instead of 5V and 12V. They generate considerably less heat and are considerably quieter when running.
As this adapter frame has the same dimensions and SATA connections as a 3.5" SATA hard drive, it can be used just like a 3,5" SATA drive - this solution uses considerably less energy and produces less heat and noise.
Many PC enclosures allow you to attach 3.5" format hard drives and converters on the underside. This is also possible for this converter.
Please note:
With converter housings where only side screw attachment is possible, this converter does not have the screw attachment at the same positions as a 3.5" drive: the 3 threaded holes on the side have a clearance from the bottom of 6mm instead of 5mm, only the hole at the extreme rear has the same clearance from the front edge (115 mm); the two front holes however have a clearance of 25 and 85 mm from the front edge.
If 1mm of space is available above the slot, this allows the converter to usually only be attached with the threaded holes at the rear.
Where this is not possible, you can use the LINDY converter No.20969 (max. drive height of 7.5 mm) with standard side attachment instead
