SSD bracket

Have a Dell Insperion 660.

Try to install a Samsung 840 pro SSD.

I know I need a 2 /1/2" to 3 1/2" convertor bracket. I tried two different brands and cant get one to work. One hit the bottom of the old HD. But with both the power cable will not reach to the new drive if still plugged into the old.

What do I need to make this work.

 

Thanks

    Hi Rayh78,

    Did you see how I installed my SSD in this Wiki? Just an option to consider.

    I generally use the Silverstone SDP08 bracket, as it mimics all the mount points of a standard hard drive.
