Suspended HD, HD crash?

[MrPatate]

Hi,

I want to suspend my HD (like in the P150) but there's one thing I'm not sure about, i get how to make it, strong clothing elastic. But if the case is tilted on the front/back or on the sides(depending on how the HD are mounted) wont the HD slide and crash?

P.S. is there a place were i can get the actual mounts of the P150, they look strong and nice... And they fit in 3.5'' bay instead of other suspended solution that needs 5.25''...

Thanks

Check out the fourth post down, should be good.
The Antec SOLO case has the same hdd cage as the P150 but the bungees are like the link above.

atm Antec doesn't seem to sell the suspension cage as a spare part. http://www.antec.com/Search.bok?category=Spare+Parts&searchpath=7f00000111131a846baa4&start=1&total=65

ok, thanks!

But if the case is tilted wont the drives slide from the straps and crash?

if you decide to use the bungee / rubberband technique, make sure you cross over the bands on the side of the HD.

then, insert screws or standoffs in the side or bottom of the HD's and you'll have something to stop it from sliding.
