[dundee] HDD tray screws

[Sean McRobbie]

We bought a bag of 100 a few years ago. Off the top of my head these are 6mm screws.

I believe we got them from here:

Hope this helps :)

Hi all, as were doing the whole hardware thing today .. 

I have been looking for screws for a rack server case (fileserver) 
The case has hot swappable hdd bays that unfortunately need special screws to secure drives in to the caddies 


these screws have to be flush with the tray edge so that it will slide into enclosure. (tray has countersunk holes) 


the screws i need look like this http://dl.dropbox.com/u/272812/hdd_caddy_screw.jpg 


caddie is simalr to this http://preview.tinyurl.com/yl49b25 


eg two holes either side of the tray. 


if anyone knows a source of these screw that be amazing. 


looked almost everywhere i can think. 


cheers
