Hi guys,
I'm looking for an upgrade of my standard 80G HD, but all drives I can find are about 26mm in height. When I try to fit them into my Bubba, it won't fit... Am I doing something completely wrong? Or should I be looking for smaller (+/- 20mm) harddrives?
Rgds,
David

What size harddisk
Hi!
No, you are not doing anything wrong. When we assemble 80 GB disks (thinner) we use larger metallic distances between the board and the disk. If changing to a larger (full height) disk, replace these metallic distances with standard washers, same size and thickness of those on top of the board. If you can find washers with about 0.7-1.0 mm thickness, this will make a perfekt fit.
We can mail you a set of washers if needed, just email us at support@excito.com.
