The SSD was supplied with an SATA to ATA adapter by OWC. It was not the easiest thing to fit, simply because the sled to which it was affixed was not really meant for a Cube HD slot. The card plus sled simply sits at an angle resting inside the drive bay. This also further reduces load on the VRM.

I still use it with an HP Scanjet scanner that I can’t transfer to a new Mac Pro.  Start-up time is amazing, too.
