Do all ssds need a bracket?

About to pick up a Crucial MX100 but I don't have a bracket for it.

if you have 2.5" slots in your case you dont need adapters. even on 3.5" slots you can hook it in just 1-2 screws on the side of the slot. they don't vibrate so they don't need to be perfectly secured like normal harddrives.

Failing that some double sided Velcro pads will be sufficient to secure the SSD into your case

Most SSDs come with a bracket, if not then many of the cases themselves come with a 2.5 bracket or specially designed slot for it. For example, you can check out a case like N200 from Coolermaster.
