This is a simple bracket for installing a 2.5" hard drive or SSD in to a 3.5" bay. It is a longer design than some of them and has all three of the standard screw holes found in 3.5" hard drives which is necessary in certain cases.
I also have my "deluxe bracket" which allows you to install two 2.5" drives in a single 3.5" bay, or one 2.5" drive and a fan. There is also a cheaper/faster to print bracket if you don't need all three mounting holes. They can both be found at:

The holes on the side of this bracket should allow you to self tap a #6-32 UNC screw. (The standard ones that are used with 3.5" hard drives, not the M3 screw which has a finer thread and is generally used for optical drives and 2.5" drives - although if you find the hole too small for the 6-32, you could try an M3.)

Nov 8 2023 - Note: I had a hard drive crash and lost some of my stuff including the original source file for some of my earliest designs including this one. I took the opportunity to recreate this object in a better Cad program. The one here is now the updated version. You really should notice almost no difference.
If you liked this design, consider a tip or post a make!
