need a bit of hardware advise

[Aaron Howell]

You don't need a mobile rack draw, there are very cheap (probably about us$2) mounting kits you can get which allow you to mount a 3.5 inch drive in a 5.25 inch bay.
Out here the place you would get stuff like that is Tandy, I think thats called Radio Shack in the states?
or any half way decent computer hardware supplier should have them.
You fit the drive into the mounting kit then screw the kit into the bay, and voila.
regards
