4 out of 5 eggs Nice basic tray 04/07/2014

This review is from: Mushkin Enhanced MKNSSDBRKT2535 2.5" to 3.5" drive adapter bracket

Pros:

- Minimum use of material
- Nice finish
- Comes with screws
- Recessed screws on bottom
- Relatively cheap
- Positions the drive off-center, so the connectors end up where they're supposed to be

Cons:

- Shallow
- As with most of these, you can't mount it from the bottom, only the sides

Overall Review:

Comparing this with the similarly-priced Nippon Labs HDB-250, its advantages are that it positions the drive off center, so if your use case requires the SATA and power connectors to be in the standard location they will line up, the holes on the side for mounting seem to be closer to the standard pattern for a 3.5" drive, and the screws on the bottom are recessed, so it does better if you need it to sit flush or slide against something.

The disadvantages are that it's not as heavy duty, very shallow, and not very long, and it costs a couple bucks more.

It also has a smooth powder coated finish compared to the other tray's rough finish. On balance I prefer this one to the alternative.
