For the life of me, I can not figure out where I am supposed to put my 2.5 in SSD in the Ostrog Enermax Case. The case has ssd support supposedly, but I have no idea where it is.

This is my first time putting together a computer, so I was wondering if I could get some advice on how to mount my SSD card. What am I missing?

  • Most SSDs come with a bracket that allows them to fix in a standard 3.5 inch hard drive slot. –  Dec 27 '13 at 21:09

SSD's are 2.5" drive, and your chassis only has 5.25" and 3.5" drive bays.

You'll need a 2.5" -> 3.5" converter/carrier/brackets. Many SSD's come with them already, but if yours didn't you can get them pretty easily from most computer stores.

Something like this, or this, etc. There's many different makes/models.
