Re: [H] SSD trouble?
Brian, Thanks. I will look/see about this. I like velcro! And, I can not believe an SSD will be any kind of 'heat' generator. The damn package is all 'plastic!'

Re: [H] SSD trouble?
I've used it to mount 27-receptacle vertical (0U) monitored PDUs. Very strong. I used about 3 10" strips per PDU, and it was really overkill. -Original Message- From: hardware-boun...@lists.hardwaregroup.com [mailto:hardware-boun...@lists.hardwaregroup.com] On Behalf Of Bryan Seitz Sent: Wednesday, May 7, 2014 4:27 PM To: hardw...@lists.hardwaregroup.com Subject: Re: [H] SSD trouble?

Re: [H] SSD trouble?
Mike, No. I had not thought of that, yet. That may be the way I go. I did try the 4 6-32 screws the fixed the old 160GB EMD in place. Guess what? none of them will fit the Samsung threads! More study for sure. Thanks, Duncan On 05/07/2014 15:44, Michael Resnick wrote: Have you tried duct tape. No screws needed; no carriers needed; no converters needed.
