2.5" to 3.5" disk adapter for Antec Sonata III 500 slide bays

I seek a 2.5" to 3.5" disk adapter that will fit in the one of the four disk drive slide bays for the Antec Sonata III 500:

I purchased one of these adapter:

but it is not designed to fit in the four disk drive slide bays in the Sonata; this tray is designed to fit in a traditional 3.5" drive bay.

I was able to jury rig this unit by securing the adapter into one of the Sonata slide bays using zipties. Not an ideal solution but it seems to work.

I've searched Newegg.com and Amazon.com for 2.5" to 3.5" adapters. I see a bunch of other adapter choices. Has anyone had success using these other adapters specifically in the Antec Sonata III 500?
