Default EAGLE Consus external hdd enclosure [End Result]

[i dunon how to resize pictures ]

below is the original, mine on the other had had a few... issues.



So this all started with the plug to power the device. Right at the plug, both wire's insulation pulled away from the plug leaving about half an inch of exposed wires, both negative and positive, which were touching. So i striped back the protective rubber on the plug encasing an inch of wire, and did a good ol fashioned electrical tape job. this fixed the plug.





After i got the plug working, i realized only 2 of the three LED's still worked. possibly because both positive and negative wires had been touching? I located the problem to the mainboard having each LED plug in individually for power, so i spliced two of the LED's onto the same power and left the empty LED port bare.





Next after getting it mostly back together i realized i didnt like the white scuffs that plagued the metal enclosure, nor the logo. So i went ahead and wet sanded it. Plan is eventually make a misfits stencil, and spray it on with white paint.



And finally here it is all back together.



Really wish i would of taken pictures along the way, but all i have is my cellphone, which im sure you can tell.
