    Wow I mean thanks for your response but I'm not sure why you have to be so affront and sarcastic about a simple question. I'm not sure this entirely solves my issue or explains too much however. Hello from a fellow UC, though.

    How should I secure a free-floating HDD

    My stupid bracket does not fit the HDD, or either my HDD has the SATA oriented wrong. In any case, https://ibb.co/eDwB1w I MUST insert the hard drive blue-side up. This stupid bracket is upside down relative to proper HDD orientation, and even if it didn't, the 1mm of thickness it has seems...
