    As title. Does anyone know how I fit a SSD into a HAF 922.

    The 5 bays all appear to suit a regular HD but I cant seem to work out how to dock the SSD which is considerably smaller?

    you need to get a bay converter they are about 10 euro from most shops. it converts the drive to fit into 3&1/2 " floppy drive bay.

    Aha. I suspected as much. I actually got a set of bay converters with the case but require them for the multi-card reader. I'll just have to ring around and see what I can rustle up but suspect Athlone is not going to be great to pick up something like that before the weekend.

    Cheers

    For a ghetto short time solution, you can just use some extra long screws to hold it in place ;) Or just velcro/cable tie it to something.

    yeah prob but it only costs about 10 euro for the proper converter and you can fit 2 drives into most of them in case you decide to get second one later on
