Unused External 5.25” Bay

Nowadays, most computers and workstations only come with a single external 5.25” bay which is often overlooked and not used to its maximum potential. By using the FLEX-FIT series bracket, it is one of a kind mounting bracket that maximizes the usage of the external 5.25” bay, not only it includes 3.5” HDD/device slot but also able to add an ultra-slim ODD bay (optical drive bay) or two additional 2.5” SSD/HDD on top of the 3.5” slot.
