I know ACE Console Repairs has been milling down the original heatsinks so they would fit under the HDD caddy's without having to cut them. This method would also work with the Dual Fan Caddy...

Recently received my final batch of prototype boards for the SATA adaptor. I've hand assembled 10 units of which I'll be sending out to a handful of testers. If all goes well which I expect it should, I'll create a new thread for this device. This SATA adaptor should complement the Dual Fan and Dual HDD installs nicely...

Oh that's right Cerbios has dual HDD support now. How's that been going? I should update that kit to the "Dual HDD Kit"...

This literally changes by the week but I do have a number of reliable sources that I've been using to acquire hard to get components including original Samsung RAM. I'm hoping what's my final prototype batch, should be arriving in a weeks time. Once I can confirm they work I'll likely try and secure a few hundred Marvell IC's asap. After I have a few units tested by the community I'll proceed with the PCBA order. At this point I'm still not really sure what the final price will be as the cost of the Marvell IC can swing very dramatically. Not to mention that the Marvell IC is available in very limited quantities. It's possible this is the reason why StarTech seems to have discontinued their SATA adaptor as they just can't make them at large quantity anymore. I'll know a lot more in a couple weeks time...

Not too sure at the moment... Still wanting to do another prototype order to check changes I have made. Then I'd like to assemble a handful for further testing. Once I'm happy with everything I'll get a batch made up at the PCB factory. It'll probably take a couple of months to make all this happen.

Your in luck... I've just finished a prototype design for a SATA adaptor. It's based on the Marvell IC similar to StarTech. I added a PHD connector to eliminate the DVDrom and to use the DVD cable as an alternative power source which should complement HDDs that have been relocated to the left had side of the console. I'm about to do a second prototype order to finalize the PCB design.

I really like how the colors worked out, might have to do one like that for myself. Would be great to see some more installs or any changes made since those that had.

Just finished designing my SATA adaptor prototype... The idea was to have a similar layout to the generic 3.5" adaptors, while using the Marvell IC found on StarTech adaptors. The majority of the SMD components are on the rear side of the PCB. Full size Molex connector with reversed orientation to better suit HDD caddy/power cable. Switch for master/slave/cable select, instead of just a pin header and jumper. PHD connector to use DVD cable as alternative power source (experimental) PHD connector also eliminates the DVDrom (no dvd-check bios required) Power and HDD activity LEDs... I'll still make some changes, but I'll get a couple prototypes made up as they are. So, I can test fitment and the performance of the device before I continue any further. Any feedback would be much appreciated, Nem

I'd recommend the Orico 2.5" to 3.5" HDD adaptor. It perfectly matches up the SATA connector as if it were actually a 3.5" HDD It can easily be found on either eBay or AliExpress. The below link currently has 50% off... ORICO HDD Enclosure 2.5 to 3.5" Internal HDD Adapter - AliExpress
