[SOLVED] Is a seperate tray needed for a 2.5" SSD installation ?

[salilsurendran]

I bought a MSI MPG VELOX 100R case. The manual is linked here. Here they have two SSD tray enclosures as shown in page 11 of the manual and also as shown in this photo. My SSD has no way to attach to this since it looks like this . Do I have to buy a seperate tray for my SSD?

Are there not screw holes on the ssd that correspond to the holes in those brackets on the case. They use pretty standard screws that should have come with your motherboard.

You may consider picking up a bracket like this and put it into a 3.5 inch bay if needed. We use stuff similar to this at work when upgrading older systems.

I was able to figure out that the SSD tray slides out and then you just attach the SSD to the tray using the supplied screws and then slide it back on the case.
