Tape it to the inside of the case? Velcro?

I thought about doing this and I generally like screws because I move my PC around my house, But I guess some STRONG double sided tape will do...don't want ssd to randomly unplug and crash computer

The best way to predict the future is to invent it

If you don't use the 5.25 bays you can also get countless adapter or hotswap cages for the 5.25 bay. In my brother's PC i've built in a mounting thing for slim drives, which supports either dual slim drive or one slim drive and a ssd. I've also seen a 4x 2.5 to 5.25 hotswap bay...

Velcro would be best, It's much easier to remove the ssd opposed to double sided tape.

strap it down in your 5.25" bay with like a hot swap adapter. Thats what i plan on doing when i get mine since im doing 2x240 rads i will have to take out all hdd mounts and ssd mounts. plenty of ways to do so!

 

also some people said just put it on the back of the mb tray that works great too! you can find some mounts on ppcs i believe they are called UN-mounts they have tons of litle miscellaneous mounts for everything! High quality too!
