OWC Hard Drive Bracket

for Mac Pro (2009-2012)

Updated for 2015, the OWC Hard Drive Bracket is the new universal standard to install any SATA hard drive in a Mac Pro tower, including the latest SATA hard drives which feature the new industry-standard mounting screw pattern. With screw mounting holes for all SATA drives, it's the drive sled built for compatibility, flexibility, and ease of use. .

Update your trays or use a spare
  • Rotate backups
  • Separate storage for individual clients or large projects
  • Simple, inexpensive way to transfer large files between two Mac Pro models
  • Utilize all 3.5" SATA and SAS drives including newer models of 6.0TB and larger capacities utilizing the new screw hole mounting pattern.
NOTE: These are compatible with the two standards of drive mounting and the screws are shorter than the stock tray so they are also compatible with drives with shorter screw hole depths, such as the Western Digital RE and RED.

Rating: 5/5 OWC to the rescue... July 28, 2016 Do you know what's harder to find than a penguin-flamingo hybrid? A freaking drive bracket for a Mac Pro. They all shipped with four, but when you buy a used Mac Pro, seems like half the time it's missing one or more of the drive brackets. Where did they go? There is no other use for them than putting them into Mac Pro, so where do they vanish to? Are they like those socks that vanish into an alternate dimension leaving you with one striped and one checkered sock on the morning you have an important meeting?

This OWC drive bracket is better than the original. It has an extra set of mounting points, to fit more modern drives where manufacturers decided to 'shake things up' by moving the screw holes.

You can't go wrong with this mount, as long as you actually have a 2009-2012 aluminum tower Mac Pro. If you have a 2008 or older, OWC has a bracket for you; it just isn't this one.

Rating: 5/5 Perfect for newer hard disks June 24, 2016 The capacity of hard drives is astounding and getting larger all the time. My older Mac Pro (mid-2010) recognizes the drives with ease, but... There has been a change. The screw hole configuration on the newer drives is different. The Mac Pro came with sufficient drive sleds, but the sleds only accommodated the older mounting screw configuration. Enter OWC. A solution that is simple and not overly expensive. A sled that fits the 2009-2012 Mac Pro models that can actually mount older or newer drives. Perfect. Thanks OWC for making my life just a bit easier.

Rating: 4/5 For MAC PRO prior to 2013 March 14, 2016 Enable use of new hard drives that have different screw positions. Works perfectly, a little pricey

Rating: 5/5 Works well December 13, 2015 Using this with Seagate 8TB HDDs and it works well. Otherwise I could not use them as internal drives in my Mac Pro.
