In relation to the harddrive cages - I suggest something like a locking mechanism (when it's inserted) would do cool. I have no idea what relation the drives are going to have to the case, but I'll see if I can draw something up in Paint soon - but be warned, it'll most likely be a crappy "painting" since all I have is a newspaper as a mousepad and a Dell ball mouse

(lol ~ I know you're kiddin'...right ?)


Lol, Zac! ...you make me chuckle (in a good way).


gonX ~ I am in agreement. A think that I will try a simple pin-lock. I don't need it to be able to withstand too much abuse, just enough so that the drive-cage can be picked up and rotated 360-degrees without the HDD's sliding out.

I made a couple of small "J" catches that rotated on a pin, and that were held in the closed position by small springs that I pulled from pens, but the action was not very clean as the drives rubbed on the spring when loaded into the bay (test module). I considered trying another approach, but abandoned the idea as it was getting too wieldy considering that the darn thing is supposed to be "simple".

Oh well... next idea, please.

Psuedeo Update:
  • Finished profiling the mobo-support parts
  • Polished the aforementioned pieces
  • Polished the HDD cage's vertical panels
  • Cut the mobo rail/light housing (1 of 3 lights)
  • Worked a little on 2 side projects
  • Went to a Wedding
  • Had a Laff

I probably won't be able to show you what I meant before a week or so, Syr - told you I'm sitting on a craptop and I am way too sensitive about what I use as mice to show stuff.
