Anyone seen a 2.5 to 3.5 inch drive bracket that will allow the drive to work in the Mac Pro cableless drive carriers? I'm thinking about buying an SSD for the Mac Pro (2008), and want to avoid the situation the retail Velociraptors had of not having the SATA connectors in the right place.

A what? (most seem to be 2.5) There's no advantage in making them physically larger.

The advantage is they fit in the Mac Pro (or other machines with blind mating bays).

Pretty much what Blaze said. There are relatively few 3.5 inch SSDs out there, and none currently from Intel. I'm just going in at the entry level for now with a 40GB drive (the X25-V), to see what kinds of things will benefit from the drive. While not the quickest in terms of large file read/write, it does offer excellent 4k speeds for the price, and some of my workload could benefit from that.
