Phanteks PH-HDDKT_03 Stackable 3.5" HDD Bracket for Evolv X and Future Models, Supports 2.5" Drives

The Phanteks PH-HDDKT_03 is a black, stackable drive bracket for adding an additional 3.5-inch or 2.5-inch drive to compatible Phanteks cases, including the Evolv X. It suits PC builders who want to expand internal storage in a supported case.

Recommended For

• Evolv X owners adding 3.5-inch HDDs for a growing local media or file archive; the bracket is designed to add drives inside that case.
• Evolv X builders who want to increase internal drive capacity in stages; the brackets stack, and the case review describes adding optional brackets for more HDDs.
• Evolv X users who need a mount for a 2.5-inch SSD rather than a 3.5-inch HDD; Phanteks lists both drive sizes as supported.
• Evolv X builders balancing added HDD capacity with other case hardware; the case review describes multiple bracket positions and notes that fitting the maximum number of brackets affects front-radiator placement.

Real-World Use Scenarios

• When an Evolv X build is running short on internal storage, add this bracket to mount another 3.5-inch HDD in a supported drive position; the drive can provide more room for locally stored files without relying on an external enclosure.
• For a build that needs several internal drives, stack compatible brackets in the Evolv X’s designated mounts; this helps add drives in an organized case layout, subject to the case’s available positions and clearance.
• If a build needs another 2.5-inch SSD rather than a 3.5-inch HDD, use the bracket for the SSD in a compatible case; it provides an additional mounting option without dedicating that position to a hard drive.
• When assembling or upgrading an Evolv X, use a bracket to put a 3.5-inch drive to work as an internal boot or storage drive; a GamersNexus review describes using one of the case’s included 3.5-inch bays for a boot drive.
