Perfect for old pc cases.
These are made to fit 3.5 inch floppy drives or USB/Card readers into a 5.25 inch CD/DVD opening on the older pc cases. They still make a few new cases with the CD/DVD opening but it is fewer and fewer every year. They are made of plastic and since they just sit in a drive bay I don't think there would ever be a problem with them. I use them to mount USB-C, USB 3.0 and card readers above the CD/DVD opening. I would definitely purchase these again. Great product!

It was ok
It worked like how it should. A little flimsy but it was fine

Product is sufficient. Packaging not so much . . .
Sufficient for its use. It came broken in two places as it was packaged in a box with a bulky, heavy object with very little extra padding. This is not the fault of the delivery person - the way it was packaged it was inevitable the product would suffer damage to some extent. That having been said, I think I can repair the item well enough for it to function.

Required slight modification to the width of the drive slot
I purchased this adapter to install a 3.5" USB 3.0 panel/card reader into a new case with only 5.25" drive bays. It should work well, but the device installation was more difficult than expected. The actual width of the drive opening in the bracket is about 4 and 1/32 inches. My card reader's front face measures about 4 and 1/16 inches. The card reader fit in my old computer tower with 3.5" drive bay just fine, but to fit in this bracket, it required the sides of the drive slot to be sanded.

front panel hole too small
I had to file the short edges of the opening to make a 3.5" faceplate fit flush in the hole. The hole was just under 4 inches wide and was just enough to make the plastic faceplate bend outward. The other dimension was fine. No hardware so you have to scrounge your own screws. It is not worth the trouble.
