Slim internal UHD drive

#1 Post by josepr » Sun Mar 17, 2024 7:44 am

I am looking what uhd internal slim drives are available and the only one I can see is:
HLDS BU40N (Still seems to be available in amazon)

Did find the Verbatim 43888, which is external but is it possible to remove the internal odd from it? Possible without destroying the enclosure? As I already have a few LGs x 5.25 wanted to get a Pioneer if possible.

Yes, it is possible to remove it. On sides there are small holes and you have to pry the top and bottom metal plate ...

I second that. And if you think an enclosure is too expensive, replace one LG with a Pioneer and with this cheap adapter you can still use the removed LG via USB. You can even flash with this adapter and attach old hard disks or SATA-SSDs.

Form factor currently have space for one slim odd in my case and like to keep it need all together nothing external right now. May get a 5.25 if i decide to build another a bigger case later.
