This is an adapter to allow a 2.5" SSD (what normally fits in a laptop) to be installed in a 3.5" drive bay. No need to use this adapter.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Most laptop drives and SSDs are already the correct size for laptop PCs, so this adapter should not be necessary. This is mainly for desktop PCs.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Since you have a laptop, I'm guessing you also have a 2.5" HDD. If that's the case, this will NOT solve your problem as the adapter fits a standard 3.5" bay. You should not need an adapter if you are swapping a 2.5" HDD with an SSD. If you were adding a 2.5" drive (HDD or SSD - as a second drive) to a laptop using the removable media bay, there are adapters available for that and this is NOT one of them.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.This mount is made for mounting SSD’s into Towers.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No adapter is needed if installing in a laptop, reuse the mounting bracket the original drive was using.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Laptops generally use SSD's in their native form factor, ie without an adapter.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Should work fine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Yes
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You shouldn't need this mount for your laptop. In fact, it probably wouldn't fit anyway as this mount's intended use is for desktops. Your existing hard drive is mounted to whatever Lenovo used to mount it to the laptop. Unscrew the old hard drive from the Lenovo mount and replace it with your new SSD. It should fit right in afterwards.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.If you are replacing the drive in a laptop, you do not need this. You do not need to purchase a mount at all. You will most likely run into a small metal bracket that encases three sides of the existing drive; just remove the old drive and install the new one. Make sure to look at the orientation of the drive before removing, otherwise, you might have to try a couple times before getting an exact fit.
