OK, really dumb question here. I want to fit an SSD into a SATA 3.5" external disk drive enclosure. But most of the SSDs on the market are 2.5". Will they fit? I mean, one would think that there is plenty of room, but are 2.5" SATA disks compliant with 3.5" SATA slots? I'd like to believe that a SATA connector is a SATA connector, and what's hanging off of it is irrelevant. But ... just want to check.
Also, can I assume that a SATAIII disk will work in an older SATA enclosure, or do I need a SATAIII enclosure?
