do you need to buy a Silverstone Tek 3.5-Inch to 2 X 2.5-Inch Hard Drive HDD SSD Bay Converter, Silver (SDP08). To go with this?

You can order also from outside US, but then you have additional cost for shipping and import tax. For me it's then about the price I would pay on amazon.de.

Is a mounting kit required?

Fair enough. It depends on your case, and where you want the drive to be. Some cases have 2.5" bays/mounting places on both sides, some only on the right side (back of the mainboard so to say), and some have none at all.

Keep it to one thread though (the other one).

yea the list price is just a marketing trick to make you think youre getting a really good deal. i think that was the price when the 840 pro first launched. i remember buying the 256gb 840 pro on sale for a little over $220 when it first released. at the time it was great deal.

still $135 for a 840 pro 256gb is a really good deal. i guess the sale is over and went back up

At $160 now, can get it cheaper on Newegg, or a 512GB for $270. Very nice SSD though.
