Do you know where I could find blank 3.5" enclosures that are universal fitting?

Steel, Alum, Plastic...anything

Only need a couple dozen so stamping is out of question.

I think theres enuf people building DIY circuits or I/O ports to justfy the need... Its just a question of where are they?

Thanks yanansi, but they must not only fit LL, but be universal so they fit all manufacturer's cases :(

Yea, its a tricky one to find... worst case scenario I'd fabricate brackets to the LL so they adapt to other manufacturer FD bays.

Interesting comment.. :lol:

Sorry to do that, I can't help try to make everything sound dodgy. <_<



Do you just want blanking plates or actual racks mnpc? You said enclosures, but then brackets... confuzzled meh.

I need a FD faceplate with universal mounting tabs on either side like this, but no component installed.

I'm leaning towards having to talk to a manufacturer, but I thought it was worth asking around first.

Look at how many products are made for FD bays now :blink:
