Equipment
First off, the post for today:
More cuttings discs
WD WD5000AAKS caviar SE16 500GB hard drive (Going in the top PC)
Modding continued
Finished cutting the powersupply!
Cut the top a bit more, as the motherboard wouldn't go in.
Kind of scratched it and a few dents, i got carried away with a hammer and a flat ended screwdriver :dno
First mock fit up, it currently doesn't fit in :unhappy
I was hoping to keep 2 5.25" bays, one DVD slot for each machine but the RAM has different ideas.
After more modding today, i cut some more off the top and cut the second 5.25" bay as you can see the board now fits! Just.
As you can see, it really is a snug fit (the PSU is actually ontop of the board
Heres the space between the 5.25" bay and the PSU lead space and IDE line
I'm making motherboard trays for both motherboards. Recycling the old dell case.
Half cut it
I thought i might aswell try out my new paint on the screws i'll be using, this is a primer coat.
