I needed for HP MicroServer caddy adapter and this provided a perfect solution. While I am pleased with the product, hence 5-star, I am disappointed about this particular seller by the name Nollmit, (please note that this product is sourced from multiple sellers). I was somehow misled to believe that they are based in UK (they even advertise a Greater London postcode) and I went ahead with the order thinking that UK based delivery is a matter of days not weeks. It took nearly a month from China. I have no problem if I was told clearly from the outset - I have purchased items before with the knowledge that delivery would take weeks from China particularly if the price was right. But on this occasion I needed the item sooner and hence why I was swayed by the "UK based business" description, which in fact can mislead customers in the precise meaning of the phrase. Anyways, product and price 5/5, seller rating 1/5. Review: Good quality & universal fit. - Fitting perfectly into my Dell Optiplex 7020 SFF Plus. Added a 2.5" SATA - fitted well, easy to install and matched the other metal caging in the PC. Excellent. ## Features - Adapts any 2.5" SATA SSD or hard drive for use in any 3.5" drive tray - Designed for hot-swap capable drive cages and cases - Can be used anywhere a 3.5" drive is normally used, including computer drive bays and side or bottom mount drive enclosure trays - Effectively conducts and convects away heat to help maintain the long-term reliability of high-performance SSDs and hard drives - Compatible with 3Gb/s and 6Gb/s SATA SSDs and hard disk drives ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00F3QFKNS | | Best Sellers Rank | 18,671 in Computers & Accessories ( See Top 100 in Computers & Accessories ) 2 in Caddies | | Brand | DSLRKIT | | Brand Name | DSLRKIT | | Colour | Silver | | Compatible Devices | 2.5" SATA SSD Hard Drive, 2.5" SATA Hard Drive | | Country of Origin | China | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 3,526 Reviews | | Data Transfer Rate | 6000 Megabytes Per Second | | Enclosure Material | Plastic | | Hardware Interface | SAS | | Hardware Platform | Universal | | Hardware interface | SAS | | Hardware platform | Universal | | Item Dimensions L x W x H | 14.7L x 10.1W x 1.2H centimetres | | Item Weight | 0.12 Kilograms | | Manufacturer | DSLRKIT | | Manufacturer Part Number | HDD Adapter | | Material | Plastic | | Model Number | HDD Adapter | | Network Connectivity Technology | SATA | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product dimensions | 14.7L x 10.1W x 1.2H centimetres | | Supported Devices Quantity | 1 | | The Standard Size of the Hard Drive or the Bay the Hard Drive Is Compatible With (in inches) | 2.5 Inches | | UPC | 700371099893 | ## Product Details - **Brand:** DSLRKIT - **Colour:** Silver - **Hardware interface:** SAS - **Hardware platform:** Universal - **Product dimensions:** 14.7L x 10.1W x 1.2H centimetres ## Images ![2.5"SSD to 3.5" SATA HDD Adapter Caddy Tray Hot Swap Plug - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61hdGn7WwYL.jpg) ![2.5"SSD to 3.5" SATA HDD Adapter Caddy Tray Hot Swap Plug - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61vjC0qRxAL.jpg) ![2.5"SSD to 3.5" SATA HDD Adapter Caddy Tray Hot Swap Plug - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61a81v2eNkL.jpg) ![2.5"SSD to 3.5" SATA HDD Adapter Caddy Tray Hot Swap Plug - Image 4](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51TZhhaRD2L.jpg) ![2.5"SSD to 3.5" SATA HDD Adapter Caddy Tray Hot Swap Plug - Image 5](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61LRLHyo+6L.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: will this fit an icy box 3.5" mobile caddy** A: This puts a standard sized 2.5" drive into a 3.5" sizeI have used it in a hot swap 3.5" caddy in a serverit should fit any 2.5" drive into any 3.5" caddy/holderthe SATA connections line up perfectly with where they are meant to be on a 3.5" drive **Q: does this work for replacing the hdd in a late 2009 imac with a new 2.5 inch ssd** A: Yes it does I got it to work in my 2008 Mac Pro **Q: IS this compatible and usable with Mac Pro?** A: Yes. I have a couple of these and they are in a 2007 - 2008 Mac Pro 3.1 & a mid 2010 5.1 Mac Pro. **Q: I have a Samsung 2.5 SSD and want to put this into 3.5 slot in HP Microserver Gen8. Will this caddy do the job? Thanks** A: I am no expert, but as long as your HP has a spare 3.5 slot and usually secures a 3.5 disk then the caddy will work with the usual 4 x little side screws and make sure you have a spare Power and Data Cable Connector for a SATA Device then it should work just fine. I ordered additional SATA Cables which came as a pack of two, one straight end and the other had a 90 degree end which was useful for awkward angles. Good Luck. I must admit since I added a Samsung SSD to my 5 year old HP it is running like a miracle has occurred. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A Perfect Fit Adapter *by K***O on 13 December 2014* A perfect adapter to make a 2.5" drive as a 3.5" HDD drive form factor.

Added a 2.5" SATA - fitted well, easy to install and matched the other metal caging in the PC. Excellent. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality bracket, for those times when it matters *by O***E on 21 June 2023* There are plenty 2.4-3.5" adapter brackets and I have used many different designs over the years. They all work, they all do the job and by and large it matters not whether you get a cheap plastic one for 99p from a well known auction site or a super-expensive brand name model made of anodised aluminium with a fancy logo. However, there are times when it does matter, and a case in point is upgrading an older iMac's hard drive to SSD. The iMac is built to the 3.5" form factor and assumes everything is _just so_ in terms of size, shape, placement of screws, connectors etc and in this case, a bracket like this one is essential. There will be similar cases in the PC world too. Certain servers, hot-swap caddies etc. If that's the case for you, get this bracket. Otherwise, save yourself the bother and the money and get the cheapest available adapter. ## Frequently Bought Together - DSLRKIT 2.5" SSD to 3.5" SATA Hard Disk Drive HDD Adapter Caddy Tray CAGE Hot Swap Plug - SAMSUNG 870 EVO SATA SSD 500GB 2.5” Internal Solid State Drive, Upgrade PC or Laptop Memory and Storage for IT Pros, Creators, Everyday Users, MZ-77E500B/AM, Black --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.hk/products/47941821-2-5ssd-to-3-5-sata-hdd-adapter-caddy-tray](https://www.desertcart.hk/products/47941821-2-5ssd-to-3-5-sata-hdd-adapter-caddy-tray) --- *Product available on Desertcart Hong Kong* *Store origin: HK* *Last updated: 2026-09-29*
