Good evening list,
Bear with me please. :-) Regarding a floppy disk drive that I have to
replace. It's factory installed in the 3.5" bay ACER stuck it in, above the
CD-ROM drive. The diskette drive has no face plate, it's open. It has a
knob that sticks out of the case to disengage the diskette from the drive
when you want to take the diskette out. There is just a 3.5" 'slit' big
enough in the tower case to insert a diskette. However, I do have a 5.25"
expansion bay just under the CD-ROM drive, two in fact. But neither are
small enough for a replacement diskette drive to fit into. But, there are
two metal 'brackets' the width of the case that look like they are there to
hold 5.25" drives or maybe a CD-R, tape drive, LS-120, ect. My question is,
do I also purchase a bracket kit < for lack of a better word > that would
make the 5.25" bay small enough to fit the 3.5" floppy diskette drive?? Or
could the bracket the diskette drive is in now, fit into one of the 5.25"
expansion bays??
I apologize if I'm making this sound more complicated than it should be.
You all are the *experts*. :-) I'm just learning one step at a time. ;-)
Thanks so much for *any* advice.
