Delock 18205 2.5 inch to 3.5 inch Internal Drive Bay Adapter Bracket for HDD/SSD - Metal, Black

This Delock mounting frame bridges the gap between compact 2.5-inch storage and standard 3.5-inch drive bays, enabling a clean, vibration-free integration of SATA HDDs or SSDs into desktop PCs, servers, and workstations. Unlike plastic brackets that flex under load, the all-metal construction provides a rigid platform that holds the drive securely while maintaining proper airflow around it. The open-frame design prevents heat buildup, and the included screw sets make installation straightforward—no extra hardware needed.

Highlights

• Adapts any standard 2.5" SATA HDD or SSD to a 3.5" drive bay
• Durable metal frame with black finish for long-term reliability
• Open design promotes natural ventilation to keep drives cool
• Includes 4 screws for the 2.5" device and 4 screws for the frame
• Supports horizontal installation in desktop, server, or workstation chassis

In daily use

Whether you are upgrading an older system with a fast SSD or adding a high-capacity 2.5" HDD to a server, this adapter removes the need for a dedicated 2.5" bay. The drive sits flush inside the 3.5" slot, and the metal frame ensures it stays aligned even under constant vibration. Because the bracket is open on the sides, air can circulate freely, which is especially valuable in dense storage arrays. The black coating resists corrosion and blends with most case interiors.
