    You do realise that normal double sided tape isn't that good when it gets warm?
    Granted SSD produce very little heat and hard drives don't produce much, but it'll still probably generate enough to soften the glue enough for the SSD to fall off (if it's being suspended by just the tape)

    Still who needs a case with additional screw holes and brackets when you've got double sided tape

    Not suspending it, just hoping it will be enough to stop the SSD moving all over the place whilst I'm transporting the case

    The case only has one HDD bay, and I couldn't be bothered buying an adapter for the 5.25" bays (or re-routing the cables), so a hybrid drive seemed the clear option.

    2TB capacity, with the speed of an SSD, all in one 3.5" bay. This is the future.
