Technical Notice
When we run the compatibility test with some vendors’ SSD drives, we found that it's very tight to install some SSDs with Q224 tray. The following SSDs are the examples. Intel Solid‐State Drive 320 Series, SSDSA2CW300G3, 300GB:
The specification defines that the width of Intel SSD is 69.85mm ± 0.25 And OCZ Vertex 2, OCZSSD2‐2VTXE120G, 120GB:
The specification defines that the width of Intel SSD is 69.63mm But the actual width of these two SSDs are over 70mm. It’s wider than the Q224 tray. So it’s hard to mount the drive to the tray. Even if you fit the SSD to the tray, it may cause difficulty to hard plug the tray in and out of the chassis.

Technical Notice
Summary We test many traditional 2.5 HDDs, such situation doesn’t exist. This limitation notice is made for you to pay attention to the case. If you use Q316 or Q424 chassis, that would not be a problem.
