Hello everyone,

Hope you are all safe and sound during these troubling times.

I have finally run out of space on both my SSDs so I've decided to set up another one by myself. Being a pc newbie of sorts and seeing how every hardware store is currently closed, I tried my best to figure out how to connect it. I am providing you with an image showing the ONLY way I was able to set it up and place it within the case. Please let me know if this is acceptable or will it cause damage in the long run/near future.

Thank you for your time and stay safe!

Thank you for the reply!

It's an Antec GX1200. Yes I am able to insert another SSD where you pointed, but the issue is that when the hardware store guy put everything together he did it in such a way that I can hardly move anything inside.. If you believe the way I did it could cause severe damage then I will immediately unplug it and try to set it up better later.

EDIT: You can actually spot the drivers inside the "box" below the SSD. The power supply is there and the drivers are to the right.

Those spaces are specifically to mount a 2.5" SSD.
Its even printed in the metal.
