Goby you are just trying to kill my day are you????

"You live in Indiana....Your a Hoosier! face the facts buddy! I am originally a buckeye....but living as a Hoosier!"

It is only true is you own more land in Indiana then in Texas and since I own 500 acres in Texas and only 250 here I am still a TEXAN.... No you are not going to get me to say I is a Hoosier......No way no how. THAT IS A FACT JACK.....

Besides ain't no one here that can tell me what a Hoosier is ....???????

Anyway on another note has it proven to be a problem with using software to open up your different cd/dvd roms?
I like the stealth look of them but I am also wondering how the extra weight will effect the unit. Or is no excess stress put onto the slide ?
Sorry but the is the engineer in me . What to know stress loads.
I have been working on kind of the same ideal but using linear actuators to support the stealth plates but if the way you did it works as well then I can save myself some money.
Again nice job ....

You are suppose to tell everyone that the door was part of a secret poll to see how many noticed it.........LOL

LOL..haha! "what is a hoosier?" I dunno.....

I have done a bunch of testing with the software to open the drives and it works perfect. I will also incorporate the other idea of mouting something on the stealth plate to press down to open the drive.

as far as stress on the drive mechanism...I think the top one is a Sony and the bottom is a lite-on. the sony opens up much faster and is not affected but the added weight. the lite-on may open just slightly slower, but doenst affect performance. after I got the mod finished I probably stood there for 15 minutes just opening/closing the drives for fun ( and testing) I loaded them with a disc as well and still worked fine. If I did it over again, I may use something lighter then the 3/8" acrylic for the back plate. otherwise, it works fine....maybe I will try and take a movie!

Goby when you stealthed the drives did you have to move you drives back ?
If so what did you do about mounting holes ?
Drill new holes ?

Yes I had to recess them about an inch back. I also just drilled new holes in the drive tower, but it was kinda hard to drill them on the mark, because you cant see the holes on the drive itself.

no, no modding....just had to remove the top (or when flipped, the bottom) clip that holds the door on. I may hve to figure out a way to make it flatter so I can put it back on....otherwise it fits on perfectly.

Do you Plan on entering this into the mod competition ? You should do very well considering all the time and details you put in.
