If anyone has extras or knows where I can purchase some please let me know.

I have some empegs in pieces and want them put back together. I need drive cradle screws, screws for hard drives, and maybe a set or two of allen bolts that hold the fascia on.

Yes I misplaced some! I had them in a small baggie and they are MIA!

wow thanks, do you have parts numbers? they offer many different and I want to make sure I get the right ones. Especially the screws that hold the drives to the cradle and the cradle to the chasis.

If you live in a city of any moderate size, then these are all "walk in and pick up" items at pretty much any dedicated "fastener supply shop". Try the Yellow Pages (if your area has such a thing).

Cheers

i thought i read on here one time that there were special screws and hard to find. I live in a city of 130k people but often when you goto stores you get someone who doesn't know jack and often they don't have what you need.

I like talking to people who know what they are talking about. Plus being able to order them from my computer chair and knowing I got the right stuff is a plus.

Well, *I* don't, but I think there is a rudimentary BOM around somewhere. I'm not sure how one would search for it.
