Glad to hear your installation went well, if you have any questions please let us know!
This kit breathed new life into my dying 09 MBP. I added an SSD as the main boot drive, and then pushed my old HDD into this data doubler bay in the optical disc slot. Currently using the old drive as my storage. Amazing for a speed upgrade. The paired tutorial videos on the website are a life saver and the kit even comes with a color-printed, very detailed instruction booklet if you prefer to follow along that way. The kit comes with a set of small screwdrivers which were amazing. The screws all matched up and none were missing in the kit. The drive caddy/bay piece fits perfectly in the 09 MBP 15" model. One minor flaw though, was that since I am a noob to computer hardware updates and repair, I don't have tools to do this type of work. Specifically in 09 MBP 15", to disconnect the battery you have to unscrew it from the frame to slide out the connector plug. The kit coming with a set of tools was great but it did not include a specific 5-pointed screwdriver to unscrew and disconnect the battery. It contained all of the necessary tools to do the data doubler swap but not to do it in a safe manner with the battery disconnected. That was my one small con about the whole kit. (I risked it and continued the repair anyways to ultimately come out successful in my drive swap.) Otherwise the kit is a great purchase for those looking to upgrade. I highly recommend.
