7mm SSD drive in HD caddy

#1 Post by Barney »

Will a 7mm drive be too thin for the caddy, or should I find a 9.5mm?

Worse case all you would have to do is thicken up the padding any if needed. Most of the newer ssd drives are all the thinner drives and have a thin piece of plastic around the edge to make up for the thickness.

The skinny spinning drives fit in just as good from what I've seen.
