Default Need to Buy Rails for M



I wish to add a burner to a case that uses drive rails in mounting. I
do not want to change to a new case.

Does anyone know where one can buy drive rails. If any came with the
case three years ago there are tossed out now. Need metal rails, of
the snap-on type. Can you jelp me?

The rails are not standardized in any manner. You need rails specific to
your case manufacturer and possibly to a specific product line from that
manufacturer.

You could try gluing together Popsicle sticks (or just go down to the
hardware store and get a piece of wood) and carving and drilling to fit.
That works far better than you might expect.
