> 3 dayI picked up a CMP that was missing all its drive sleds. Since I was going to install a 2.5 SSD anyway, the OWC Mount Pro 2.5 was the way to go. The sled works perfectly- if it wasnt anodized OWC blue youd think it was an OEM Apple part. Very satisfied with my purchase. I only bought one, but Im thinking of adding another SSD so Ill probably grab another...

> 3 dayI found this to be a better option than the Newer Tech Adaptadrive solution as this connects the drive directly to the logic board. No bridge connector, which I found to have a rather high failure rate for me. Ive had mixed luck with OWC products but this seems to be a solid solution.

> 3 dayFor that select group of people that own one of these 10+ year old beasts and have yet to put a SSD in it, these sleds are the way to go. Four screws to mount the SSD to the sled and the switch out for the existing HHD sled is trivial. Much faster and simpler than the equivalent process in a PC case.

Greater than one weekUnlike Mac Pro tray adaptors, this replacement tray allows a direct connection between the SSD and internal SATA port. There is no intermediate socket, nothing to break or get flakey. Just a nice solid piece of kit. Not the cheapest, but the simplest and most robust SSD tray for 4,1 and 5,1 Mac Pros.
OWC Mount Pro 2.5" Drive Sled for 2009-2012 Apple Mac Pro
Add any 2.5" Hard Drive or SSD to your Apple Mac Pro!
While designed with the OWC Mercury brand SSDs in mind, the OWC Mount Pro 2.5 is the easiest way to add ANY 2.5" Hard Disk Drive or Solid State Drive to your Apple Mac Pro (2009-2012 "Nehalem" & "Westmere" models).
The powder-coated aluminum and open design assists in heat dissipation while the blue color not only looks sharp, but allows you to tell at a glance which bays contain 2.5" form factor drives.
Installation is a breeze. Simply attach your 2.5" drive to the bracket using the four included hard drive mounting screws and swap with an existing 3.5" drive tray. The OWC Mount Pro 2.5 perfectly aligns the SATA connection from your 2.5" drive into the back plane SATA ports on the Mac Pro.
Note: Not for use with Mac Pro models released in 2006, 2007, or 2008
