OWC Multi-Mount Chapter 2 - Bracket Assembly
2.1 Installing either 1 or 2 3.5” Hard Disk Drives
2 3.5” BRACKET ASSEMBLY
Begin by positioning the bottom 3.5” hard disk drive with
the connection ports facing away from you, and then pick
up the OWC Multi-Mount 3.5” drive bracket that has the
white OWC Multi-Mount 3.5” silkscreening on it.
Place the OWC Multi-Mount onto the bottom 3.5” hard disk
drive using the center Phillips screw - coarse thread - and
don’t tighten it all the way yet. Leave it loose.
Attach a second screw to one of the outside holes, that will
make sure that you have the bracket centered on the hard
disk drive. Then, you can insert the third screw and tighten
all 3 of them rmly.
If you are going to install a 2nd 3.5” drive in the OWC Multi-
Mount, continue with installation of that drive now follow-
ing the same instructions. You do not have to install 2 drives
into the bracket and can add a 2nd drive at any time.

Once you have the right bracket installed, rotate the hard
drive and attach the left side bracket using the same
method as step 1.
You also can add a 2.5” hard disk drive using the OWC 2.5”
Multi-Mount. See the next chapter if you are wanting to
install a mixed environment of drive mechanisms.
The OWC 3.5” Multi-Mount assembly is ready to install into
your system. Continue to chapter 3 for common installation

2.2 Installing a 2.5” Hard Disk Drive
2 2.5” BRACKET ASSEMBLY
Installing a 2.5” Hard Disk Drive into the OWC Multi-Mount is
simple - place the 2.5” drive mechanism on the table in front
of you, with the interface connection to the right side.
Take the OWC Multi-Mount 2.5”drive bracket that has the
white OWC silkscreen on it, and attach it to the drive mecha-
nism as shown above, with the portion of the bracket that
has the OWC logo extended o of the drive to the left.
Firmly tighten the large Phillips screws that are held to the
OWC Multi-Mount bracket through rubber grommets to the
side of the hard drive facing you.
Once attached, turn the drive around and repeat using the
other drive bracket. Make certain that all screws are fully
inserted into the drive.
The OWC 2.5” Multi-Mount is now ready to install into a 3.5”
drive bay, or into the OWC 3.5”Multi-Mount. Continue to
chapter 3 for common installation photographs.

OWC Multi-Mount Chapter 3 - Bracket Installation
2.3 Installing 1 or 2 2.5” Hard Disk Drives into the
OWC Multi-Mount
3 BRACKET ASSEMBLY
Once you have the 2.5”OWC Multi-mount attached to the
2.5” hard disk drive, you can install up to (2) 2.5” drives onto
the 3.5” OWC Multi-Mount bracket.
In the above picture you see an arrow pointing towards the
extended portion of the 2.5” OWC Multi-Mount bracket.
That would be the front of the drive, the 2.5” OWC Multi-
Mount bracket says “OWC” silkscreened in white right on
that portion of the bracket. You need to place the bracket in
this orientation to properly install.
The 3.5” OWC Multi-Mount bracket that you are attaching
the 2.5” OWC Multi-Mount bracket to has the white OWC
text silkscreening on it as well. Use that as your orientation.
The picture on the next page may also assist in orientation.

OWC Multi-Mount Chapter 3 - Bracket Installation
3 BRACKET ASSEMBLY
Here you see a completed assembly comprised of one set
of 3.5” OWC Multi-Mount drive brackets, and two sets of 2.5”
OWC Multi-Mounts, all assembled into one unit.
The 2.5” OWC Multi-Mount is attached to the 3.5” OWC Multi-
Mount using 6 of the ne thread Phillips screws included
with the mount - 3 per side, 6 total per drive bracket assem-
bly. It’s easiest to start the center screw, but not fully tighten
it, and then insert the outer two screws. This assures that you
have the bracket lined up perfectly before continuing.
Depending on the installation you choose for your system,
the 3.5” to 5.25” OWC Multi-Mount adapter bracket may not
be needed - but in many applications such as installation
into the Mac Pro, this is the best way to add 2 more 2.5” Hard
Drives into your system.
