Hi,

Does anyone know of a wholesale (or inexpensive retail) source for 5 1/4" drive rails (aka mounting rails, drive guides, etc.) of various designs for the likes of Enlight (screwless-style), Compaq, Dell, etc.?

I have tried Startech, Cyberguys, etc. No luck there. Most retail outfits are charging UNBELIEVABLE prices that I would not be willing to pass along to my own customers.

I used to have a ton of these around, but that's dried up and I still get upgrade service calls on the old cases.

Anyone have any good parts wholesales lists?

Thanks,

David

Since you are looking for parts for older cases, try a PC recycler like CompRenew
www.comprenew.com

If you have a local firm that recycles PCs, you might just be able to browse through the stock and buy by the pound.

Fantastic idea! I hadn't thought of this. Thank you for the idea. I appreciate it.

Hmm, now I have to find a recycler, but it seems do-able.
