| 733189 | 2009-03-02 22:57:00 | That looks completely different to the ones I need, unfortunately. | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 733190 | 2009-03-02 22:59:00 | Well they'll work on any hdd (they go into the holes on the side of a hdd). Just as long as the hdd is in a 3.5 enclosure |

| 733191 | 2009-03-02 23:11:00 | No, the rails are for 5.25" drive bays, but for internal 3.5" drives the case uses metal boxes with space for 3 drives each. The case can take two of these boxes but only came with one. I needed new rails and/or another internal drive box. In either case, your rails probably wouldn't fit, they look too skinny and the clips probably wouldn't line up with the hole... |

| 733192 | 2009-03-02 23:19:00 | You probably need something like this (edencomputers.co.nz) then But they're a bit of a tight fit Which is probably the same as this (www.xpcgear.com) |

| 733193 | 2009-03-02 23:51:00 | That's no good, I'd still need the removable drive rails to mount those brackets into the 5.25" bays | Agent_24 (57) | ||
| 733194 | 2009-03-03 00:01:00 | You may as well get a removable rack then. That fits into a 5.25 bay. And you chuck the hdd in it |

| 733195 | 2009-03-03 00:29:00 | It doesn't matter what I get, any 5.25" device requires rails to mount into my case. I only have 4 rails and I'm already using them all. The internal 3.5" box is using a floppy drive and a HDD. I don't want to add another drive in between the two because there's no room for airflow. |

| 733196 | 2009-03-03 21:35:00 | The case is a Xaser II. I may have some spares as i'm only using a couple of the 5.25 drive bays, will check when I get home. | autechre (266) | ||
