Some more sad news on the plextor front, but only does the eject button not line up the drive itself has the tray offset enough that the tray will not even open….
This really stinks the drive is quite nice. I imagine it will have this problem on most machines though kinda wondering how others have used this drive? I’m about ready to try and fabricate my own mount but ugh.
In somewhat related news my package finally did come that I alluded to earlier and it was my Zip drive bezel!!! We’ll I don’t know if it’s really a Zip drive bezel but I got it all installed and then sad times….
It also did not line up…. If anyone has a picture or knows what kind of bracket is needed to raise this up I’d love to hear about it. In the meantime I’ve done some wonky McGyver work to get it just about right.
Go ahead just take a few moments to feast your eyes on that and just soak it in. Yes that’s bezel sandwhich, two regular bezels for the bread with a nice meaty metal g4/g3 bracket for the inside.
hey it kinda sorta works though, not perfect but definetly functional.
