Drive Mounting Kit

This metal bracket kit lets you install a 3.5in hard drive into a standard 5.25in drive bay. It supports IDE, SCSI or SCA drives and includes two brackets with both #6-32 and M3 mounting screws. The all-metal construction is RoHS and REACH compliant.

Upgrade Path

It replaces improvised mounting methods when a case lacks native 3.5in bays. The jump is worth it when you need a secure, vibration-resistant fit for a mechanical drive in a larger bay. Builders who need to stack multiple drives in a single 5.25in slot will need a different solution.

Compatibility Check

Verify your case has a free 5.25in half-height bay with at least 1.2in of vertical clearance. Confirm the drive uses a standard 3.5in form factor and that your mounting holes match the supplied #6-32 or M3 threads. No tool-less rails or proprietary screw patterns are supported.

Questions about this item

Will the 1.2-inch height and 3.5-inch length fit my case's 5.25-inch bay?

The bracket measures 1.2 inches high by 3.5 inches long and is designed to mount a 3.5-inch drive in a standard 5.25-inch bay, so it fits the bay opening.

Which of the included #6-32 or M3 screws secure the bracket to the bay, and which secure the drive to the bracket?

Use the four #6-32 screws to fasten the bracket into the 5.25-inch bay threads, then use the four M3 screws to attach your 3.5-inch drive to the bracket.

Does the all-metal construction mean I will never need to replace the bracket itself?

The metal brackets are durable and RoHS/REACH compliant, but if the screw threads strip or the brackets bend during a rebuild, you would replace the kit.
