    I have an OCZ Vertex 3 and it wasa pain putting it in the HDD rails, but I did it. I would not put it without the rails as there is no way of securing it.

    Did you end up cutting up the hard drive enclosure or just kind of forced the issue bending and manipulating the structure? I tried looking for videos out there but they are all for 17" and 15" HP envys

    I forced it into the enclosure. Be careful as inside it is just foil.

    I bought a Crucial M4 128GB few weeks ago, from B&H Photovideo. Wow, what a change, I will not buy a computer without an SSD even again.
