Two SSDs for Optiplex 3050 - how do I install them?
Hey once again.
So I got an Optiplex 3050, which works just great.
My big Q is: How do I go about installing two SSDs there? I am sure there is enough room for two such SSDs inside, but what cables would I need? I think all of this would seem straightforward. Thanks.

for 3050 MT it has a 2.5 bay for two 2.5" ssd. cables should be included already.
for 3050 SFF you can use a Dell 2.5 to 3.5 adapter which can hold two ssd. install the adapter in the 3.5 hdd bay.

SATA power cable will likely have 2 power plugs. May need another SATA data cable though unless there's 2 already in the machine for HDD's/SSD's.
