Any update here? Meaning, has anyone made any headway on fitting an MO display into a single 3.5" bay fairly easily?

I have been looking (not too hard) and monitoring this thread but no luck. I still think it is a good idea and has a market.

Best I have seen for the empty FDD is at this link ...

Even if there is something close, perhaps it could be modified to fit.

I make the same argument that you did to the above response-- with all the empty FDD bays out there I think they have a market.

For now, I am looking to pimp something together.

...that's exactly what I'm hoping to do... BUT I've got some other projects to finish first. But I'm confident it can be done...
Lemmeknow when you get something going. I was looking into a "piggyback" rig on top of my shuttle to put some 5.25 LCD displays and media readers.

3.5 inch bay inserts

LCD inserts seem like they would be cool and fun but...
I only have one FDD bay open.

Does Matrix Orbital make a 3.5 inch bay insert? Or, any mods that have crammed a "regular" one in there??

Seems like it would be a popular mod with all the FDD bays that go without drives these days.
