Hi. I have and old case which has floppy drive. Is it possible to install this SSD
in 2.5" floppy drive place?
Sorry for my english.
Thanks.

Honestly, it doesn't matter where you install an SSD since it has no moving parts. You could just duct tape it to wherever you want in the case, it doesn't need to be screwed into place or anything. Just make sure that your motherboard has a SATA connector.

Thank you. It has SATA connector, I mean is samsung evo smaller than a Floppy Drive? I want to install it in Floppy Drive place and screw it, or maybe I should buy SSD bracket?

If you want to fix it properly then get something like this:

I am sure you can find one without USB ports if necessary.

Here's one without the USB ports.

That's just an internal 3.5" to 2.5" adapter. I don't the holes line up the same for fixing that into the floppy slot and it will also leave a hole in the front of his case.

If you can align the mounting holes I don't see why you shouldn't be able to mount it there. The front will have gaps around it but otherwise I think it would work. I've mounted them inside of 5.25" bays to a single side, at the top of my case or wherever I can find space for them and since they aren't mechanical orientation doesn't matter.
