A HDD/SSD 2.5" Mounting Bracket for PC Slot // I did a video about a $3 US mystery PC expansion card called the Athena Power 2.5" backplane two years ago. A 2.5" drive in a removable carrier that was accessible through the back of the expansion slot. Newegg still has that card in stock but no longer discounted and cost $30 US for that and a floppy-to-SATA cable. I needed a cheaper alternative and found a $7 US PC expansion card that can mount a 2.5" drive.
This is in preparation for moving from FreeNAS (USB boot drive) to TrueNAS Core (SSD boot drive). TrueNAS doesn't work well with USB flash drives. I needed 2.5" mounting brackets for my old school ATX case.
