    I figured the computer would come with a 2.5" drive, but to my surprise it was a big ol 3.5". Anyway I'm swapping it out for an SSD, but the enclosure clips into place and slides into the SATA/power ports (no cables). So I need an adapter that aligns the 2.5" correctly into a 3.5" and I'm not sure which one to get. Anyone know for sure? Amazon prime would be much preferred, but if not I'll have to wait!

    Most I've seen align the 2.5" drive in the center which I'm pretty sure is not correct.

    It's an SSD. Just tape it down anywhere. No need for an adapter. You're just wasting money.
