What do you mean by saying it doesn't work?  I have used a lot of these kits
for just what you are describing.  The screws that come with the kits
usually don't work, but I have a bajillion screws lying around and I can
always find the ones I need.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Mounting a hard drive in a 5 1/2" drive bay


> I am trying to add an old seagate drive to a Micron Millenium
> P6 machine.  The machine has already had a second hard
> drive added to it, so the both internal hard-drive slots are
> already in use.  (This machine has a mini-tower case.)
>
> The machine has two empty 5 1/4" drive bays.  (The third has
> the cd-rom drive in it.)  I want to mount the third hard drive in
> one of these bays.  I bought a 3 1/2" to 5 1/4" mounting
> converter, but it doesn't work.  I'm assuming that it's for putting

> Is there any way I can mount the internal drive in the bay.
