Need some help with my case and its SSD slot

[Wetles89]

I didnt know exactly where to put this on the forum.

So am building my first gaming pc and i hit a little bump in the road.

I got the Corsair 300 gaming mid tower. Its a great case put the HDD and SSD slots are abit weird.

The HDD is not a problem. I removed the disk holder, put my HDD right in there with the 4 nubs on the sides and slid it right back in.

The SSD however not so much.

So on the disk holder (its probably not its real name) it got four screw holes to screw in the SSD. Fair enough. But the holes are all located on the far right and side of the holder, meaning that the little nobs you use to fasten the HDD now blocks off the SSD`s passage to the screw holes.

In other words, I cant fasten the SSD inside the disk holder.

Any help out there on this one?

Just remove them. They are metal pins stuck in rubber, you can just pull it out from the HDD rack.

if you look at the tray most newer trays are built for both drives. what they do is they have wholes drilled on the tray itself so you can screw the ssd down to the tray from the bottom using hd screws by 4x.

if you look at the image that how you screw an ssd down to a tray.

The SSD will bump into the HDD mounting plugs, I had the same issue with my 300r.

hard drive plugs come out with a light tap.
