Adapters for 2.5" drives still sit in the original caddy. For a single drive, here's my favorite: https://www.amazon.com/ORICO-Adapter-Mounting-Bracket-Interface/dp/B01LZWX6PD/ref=mp_s_a_1_3?dchild=1&keywords=orico+ssd+adapter&qid=1619905556&sr=8-3
If speedstep or redxps630 chime in, their suggestions also work. I mention because it's best to stay away from adapters that are too cheap. Then the SSD won't be positioned right and the blue tab that hangs down from original caddy will be in the way of connections. It happened to me.

agree that 7080 Dell 3.5 caddy can take a generic 2.5 adapter. if you prefer all Dell oem then one option is F767D. here is pic of 3.5 and F767D

Guys, I think the OP is asking for the 2.5" drive caddies. I'm also looking and found nothing. The Optoplex 7080 Mini Tower holds 2 2.5" caddies and 1-3.5in drive that comes with a caddie.

The Dell 2.5 adapter can support two 2.5” ssd/hdd mounted on top and bottom sides of adapter and the adapter is installed like a single 3.5” sata device.
