Lovely piece of hardware
Bought this to replace the 3.5" HDD in my iMac with a 2.5" SSD. Beautifully made, shame it's inside the iMac and can't be seen :-)

screws _very_ similar
The only problem I see with this product is that the two different sets of screws were _very_ difficult to tell apart. The instruction is to use the screws with the smaller head to fasten the 2.5'' drive and the screws with larger head to attach the "adaptadrive" to the drive bay. However, the precision at which the screw heads were made seems to have a rather large tolerance. Hence, although the screws work, telling them apart was nearly impossible. (Perhaps I got a bad batch of screws)
