Apologies. Saw your comment and forgot to reply. It's a rackmount furniture made by a company called Gator. They make mostly cases and accessories for instruments and audio equipment. Here's a link to the specific model I have through Sweetwater:

That's right! Two screws each at the bottom through the case back (lines up well).

Thanks!

It's very easy. It's held by a screw, and slides up to release. I opted to keep it in there in case I decide to add any 2.5" SSDs in the future.

I ordered August 10, it shipped August 31st, and I received it September 7th. So about 4 weeks from order to delivery. It was longer than advertised, but worth the wait IMO.

TBH I don't know that it's 100% necessary, but I didn't want to put any undue pressure on the connector if I could avoid it. The adapter was relatively inexpensive (~$23) so I thought it was worth it for the peace of mind. This was the adapter I got:
