From: muzician21 on 29 Dec 2009 18:24 Just got an ebay computer with an Antec P-160 case. Apparently they came with these slide-in drive adapters, but only the included C-Drive has one. Anyone know where I might find them? Here's a pic. http://www.combatsim.com/img/6/6/6/csim014.jpg.htm Thanks for all input.

The tray slides into the side-loading cage, until the two spring clips on the end snap into place. These pictures show a 3.5" drive fastened to a Sonata tray. http://www.mysuperpc.com/build/hard_drive_mounting_screws_tray_cr.jpg http://www.mysuperpc.com/build/hard_drive_mounted_in_tray.jpg The only question that remains, is why Antec didn't update the description in their store, to reflect all the computer cases that use that tray. Maybe you could email them and verify it is the right one. Paul

It's on the previous page to the one shown. Or just go to the start page and look through them all. http://www.antec.com/Search.bok?category=Spare+Parts

If the OP buys those missing trays from the Antec store at the prices they are charging, he'll probably be paying more for that used case than he would have paid for a new one. I had a teacher years ago that often said "it takes all kinds of people to make a world.... and we've got 'em!" |
