i found the same link, suffice it to say that it requires substantial metal working, preferably with a mill (expensive if you have to pay a machine shop to do it, note to self, really try to find a free mill...) and i sadly don't see any way around it. you could probably get by with sheet metal sheers or a metal cutting jig saw, if you are patient, skilled, and have plenty of time. it requires drilling out several rivets and replacing them with snap-rivets in a different position. basically the shelf, which is riveted into the machine has to be removed, moved down, and replaced, after making a bigger hole in the front. glad i have a scsi bus for externals, much simpler. the english instructions on the site are also difficult to follow, it was written by a french speaker who obviously knows english as a second language but needs a little work (i can't complain, the only other languages i've learned are programming languages and they're much simpler).
