All storage adapters and caddies
Signs you need a new one
- You want to add a second drive but there is no spare slot.
- The drive caddy or tray is lost, bent or cracked.
- You have an old drive and want to use it inside a different laptop.
- The drive rattles because the bracket does not hold it firmly.
How to get the right fit
- Note which adapter you need: optical bay caddy, drive tray, or M.2 converter.
- For an optical bay caddy, measure the thickness (9.5 mm or 12.7 mm).
- Check the interface of both the drive and the slot: SATA or NVMe.
- Check the connector at the end of the caddy and the pin layout.
Common questions
Can I boot from a drive in the caddy?
On many laptops you can, but some will boot only from the main bay. It depends on the BIOS.
Will it work with an SSD and a hard disk?
Yes, as long as the interface matches, usually SATA, and the drive thickness fits.
Do I lose the DVD drive?
If you use the optical bay for a second drive, yes. Many people use an external USB DVD drive instead.
