You'd need to acquire another set of drive rails from the PC / chassis manufacturer. That said, technically SSD's can just be taped down to anything in the case as they don't have any moving parts, so you could also unscrew the SSD from its' existing rails then re-use those rails on your new HDD. 😉 Just ensure you've also got enough SATA Data + Power cables for another drive.

So I am about to order a hard drive. I want to know what I will need to mount it. I have looked in my pc case and it looks like there are no screw holes and the hard drives sit of a little bed with clips on the side to hold it in place. Does this mean that I have to buy clips to go on the hard drive to install it?
