RockDawg Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I just purchases a Norco 4224 and am thinking about buying a Seagate Momentus XT 750GB Hybrid for my ESXi datastore drive. I would like to install it in one of the removable drive trays in the 4224, but it is a 2.5" drive. Are there any adapters that will allow it to work? Link to comment
joshpond Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Kingston make one that works. I have one in my 4224. I have to try and find a link. Like this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Kingston-Storage-bay-adapter-3-5/dp/B0029U14VS Josh Link to comment

RockDawg Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 Thanks guys. I didn't realize they made adapters like those. Link to comment
lionelhutz Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 I thought the Norco case has the holes needed for bolting a 2.5" disk directly to the tray. I've seen pics from one of the big cases that has the holes. Link to comment

I've seen pics from one of the big cases that has the holes. I just looked at the empty tray in my 4220... YOU'RE RIGHT!!
