OK, I'm sold on the case idea. This is really going to not impress people but I guess there may be a missuse in terminology. The slim slot drive I'm intending to use is the the non tray type.
I'm not even sure if there's even a proper term to differentiate this tray type;
From this non-tray type:
I've already seen those cases on ebay that thanatos106 linked to, which are the same as the first pic - TRAY TYPE. Perhaps this is a mute question, but aren't these case dimensions different between the tray and non-tray type slot load units? If appears that they LOOK the same size but hate to order and find out there are subtle differences that set them apart. I imagine it should be a straight forward answer to these questions.
I'll re-iterate, are those slot load cases shown in thanatos106's link good for only the tray type as indicated in the ebay pics or are they the same size/fit/match for the non tray type as as shown in the pic above? Thanks,
John
