Stealth drive how-to's?

Drake · 21-December-02, 02:27 AM

Greetz, all.

I finally found the blank plates from my case that I thought I lost, and would like to put them to good use stealthing my drives

.

Thing is, I have no clue where to start. I just figure rip the drive's original faceplate off, then attach the case blank in it's stead.

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

I think I've seen about 50 different methods to do this now.

I prefer the long strip of velcro over then entire drawer so it holds well, plus it has enough to allow you to hit the eject button. Also, it's the easiest one to fix if you screw up mounting the cover on the first try.

On my Lian-Li I'm going to use an aluminum thumbscrew (no screwdriver slots on it) to hit the eject button. It nicely matches the new knobs on my RheoBus.
