> 24 hourQuality aluminum bracket on par with original apple drive sleds for 3.5 fit SSD right into old drive slot. of course a 500mb/sec SSD will only get 300mb/sec in the built in slots, but good enough for some purposes where max speed isnt critical.

> 24 hourI recently got a used 2009 Mac Pro in which some idiot had thrown away the old hard drive WITH the mounting bracket. But the brackets were all for 3 1/2 drives anyhow, and I wanted to put in a SATA SSD as a boot drive. Havent got the drive yet (too busy doing all the other upgrades), but the bracket slotted right into the hole. The blue color definitely stands out. I think I like it.

> 24 hourHigh quality Mac Pro drive sled, perfect to add a SSD drive to your Mac. I like the blue color. At a glance you can tell which bay is holding your new SSD. I cloned the drive I replaced and I like just being able to leave the original drive in its carrier. Makes for a great backup to my new one should I need it.

> 24 hourI picked up a CMP that was missing all its drive sleds. Since I was going to install a 2.5 SSD anyway, the OWC Mount Pro 2.5 was the way to go. The sled works perfectly- if it wasnt anodized OWC blue youd think it was an OEM Apple part. Very satisfied with my purchase. I only bought one, but Im thinking of adding another SSD so Ill probably grab another...

OWC Mount Pro 2.5" Drive Sled for 2009-2012 Apple Mac Pro
Add any 2.5" Hard Drive or SSD to your Apple Mac Pro!
While designed with the OWC Mercury brand SSDs in mind, the OWC Mount Pro 2.5 is the easiest way to add ANY 2.5" Hard Disk Drive or Solid State Drive to your Apple Mac Pro (2009-2012 "Nehalem" & "Westmere" models).
The powder-coated aluminum and open design assists in heat dissipation while the blue color not only looks sharp, but allows you to tell at a glance which bays contain 2.5" form factor drives.
Installation is a breeze. Simply attach your 2.5" drive to the bracket using the four included hard drive mounting screws and swap with an existing 3.5" drive tray. The OWC Mount Pro 2.5 perfectly aligns the SATA connection from your 2.5" drive into the back plane SATA ports on the Mac Pro.
