Wanted (UK) External 5.25" drive enclosure
« on: July 18, 2015, 09:45:26 am »
I'm looking for an external drive enclosure to take two 5.25" half-height drives. Just an empty case, don't need a PSU.
Mustn't be much taller than the drives, i.e. no PSU space below, but can be up to 210mm wide.

Of course in the past I must have thrown away several like this - ex BBC floppy/Hard drives etc.  :(

Something like this would be ideal - there are a few on ebay but I'm too much of a cheap-arse to pay for a drive I don't need....

If you disclose your town or county, you might get offered something local.

Don't have a DLT drive around? They use those cases as well, or just look for an Apple ][ full hight drive as a housing.

I was assuming I'd be at least paying for postage...
