See <http://www.appletalk.com.au/articles/miniserver/> where a guy put the guts of a Mini into a tower case and connected a 3.5" drive: "The PCB connecting the normal IDE cable to the daughter board was the hardest part of this project. I looked around but found only adapters allowing the use of 2.5" drives in desktop systems - it makes sense really because you can't physically fit a 3.5" drive in a laptop. So I made my own. This attaches to the mini's daughterboard, looking like a 2.5" drive to the mini, and connects a standard IDE cable." He's selling these connectors. -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
