Product: HP ProDesk 600 G3 Base Model Microtower PC
I've just purchased a 'HP ProDesk 600 G3 Microtower PC'. It only comes with one 3.5" bay and I'd like to turn the 5.25" bay into another 3.5". This video shows this being done to a very similar model and it uses a special adapter:
I'd love to find out if I can just use a generic adapter with this computer or if this special one is required. Also if I have to use the special one is there a part number I can get because I couldn't find it on the parts store.
