5 out of 5 eggsWorks

This review is from: ICY DOCK MB482SP-3B EZConvert Air Lite Top-Free Open Air 2.5” to 3.5” SATA Hard Drive or SSD Converter / Mounting Kit

Pros: I was able to use it to convert a 2012 Lenovo 325 8095 All in one Desktop from a 3.5" HDD to a new Samsung 250GB SSD. It worked flawlessly.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: I was in a bit of a hurry to install it, so I chose the "3 Day Shipping" option for a few extra $...received it the next day before Noon. Fantastic!

4 out of 5 eggsEasy set up.

This review is from: ICY DOCK MB482SP-3B EZConvert Air Lite Top-Free Open Air 2.5” to 3.5” SATA Hard Drive or SSD Converter / Mounting Kit

Pros: Used it to adapt a 2.5 SSD to a floppy bay..
I run a hotter running model CPU along with 1 other SSD. 2 standard HDD`s and 2 optical drives along with an after market GPU.
The added cooling slots are a plus for my case.

Cons: Maybe a little flimsy.
But with a little care and common sense during install you should have no problems.

Other Thoughts: Took one egg because it could be a little sturdier.

5 out of 5 eggsDid what it needed to and cheaply.

This review is from: ICY DOCK MB482SP-3B EZConvert Air Lite Top-Free Open Air 2.5” to 3.5” SATA Hard Drive or SSD Converter / Mounting Kit

Pros: This was very economical and simple to install. The metal was strong enough it did not bend/deflect when installing in a 1st gen Aluminum iMac (to use an SSD). This is important as there is a fair amount of tension on the mount. A competitor's offering didn't come close. The holes allowed the thermal sensor to be threaded through and placed on the drive. This drive also puts the SATA connectors in the "correct" location - hence why it is critical to use a product like this for the iMac.

Cons: Be careful of sharp edges... I'm reaching for straws here but it seems like that's the only way you could have a problem installing it.

Other Thoughts: This sort of device seems a bit hard to screw up... but I've had a lot of trouble with other hard drive adapters. I saw this series specifically recommended on a forum and was very pleased myself with it. I will definitely be a repeat customer if I need another one. The one I used was the "cheaper" version where you have to mount your drive with screws... and it's probably worth saving the money as it ends up being (in theory) more physically secure too.

5 out of 5 eggsWell constructed

This review is from: ICY DOCK MB482SP-3B EZConvert Air Lite Top-Free Open Air 2.5” to 3.5” SATA Hard Drive or SSD Converter / Mounting Kit

Pros: Have used a few products similar to this to mount SSD into hard drive caddies in servers. This one is well-built and sturdy. The metal is thick. The screw holes line up.

Cons: The description says this is made of stainless steel, but I don't think it is. The color is that of chromed metal rather than stainless. It doesn't look like either 304 or 316. Magnets are attracted to it strongly.

1 out of 5 eggsBuyer Beware

This review is from: ICY DOCK MB482SP-3B EZConvert Air Lite Top-Free Open Air 2.5” to 3.5” SATA Hard Drive or SSD Converter / Mounting Kit

Pros: Solidly built, very premium feeling. Screws that it came with are of high quality. Mounting holes lined up

Cons: 2.5" drives placed into these dropped I/O requests like it was their job. My servers (Dell R220s) took 20 minutes to boot while logging literally thousands of I/O retry errors. Removed these and direct-connected the SSDs to the servers and ALL the errors went away.

Other Thoughts: SSDs used were Intel Pro 2500s.
