Hi Everyone,

I can't seem to identify these bracket-like things that came with my computer case and I haven't noticed them in guides or videos. Would you please tell me what this is and if I need to use it?

I think the rest of building a PC I understand, thanks in part to TW.

Thanks.

Those are hard drive mounting brackets. Can't be sure from the picture, but they're for either mounting a 3.5inch (desktop-sized) drive in a 5.25inch bay (where an optical drive would go), or a 2.5inch (laptop-sized) hard drive in a 3.5inch bay.
