Mounting a SSD in Lian Li PC-C37B case - doug2255 - 2011-07-16

I have a Corsair SSD that did NOT come with any mounting hardware (screws or 2-1/2 to 3-1/2" mounting adapters) and am trying to install it into a Lian Li PC-37B case. The HHD cage in the case does not accomadate this 2-1/2 SSD - at least with any of the supplied hardware. This is all I need to finish my build.

There are not many computer stores around here, just Beat But, Staples , etc.

Would they have the hardware I need? WHat do I really need?

I thought this combo of Corsair SSD and Lina Li case was common - did I miss this detail when these were recommended together?

yeah well,
not all SSD'S come with a Bracket Adapter...
I bought a Corsair Nova 32GB and i came with one so,
i was happy about it!

SSD's are so small and dont produce alot of heat
so, if u dont feel like buying a Bracket Adapter,
you can buy double-sided Velcro and stick it anywhere u want in the case Smile

That was one of my work arounds - double sided tape. I just might have some Velcro lying around - better suggestion.

For the price of the 64GB Crucial SSD, I just "assumed" it would come with hardware that I needed. Well you know what it means to assume ...........

I should have my sticky solution complete tomorrow, then if all else works, it time to go to school with XBMC!!!!!!
