Saw this tower at a flea market and I’m wondering what’s installed above the 5.25" floppy drive. Does anyone know?
It’s a 5.25" slot cover, duh! You’ve got three of them.
(Plus a hard drive with a vent, a 3.5-to-5.25" floppy adapter, and a CD ROM drive)
That’s how it speaks to you, like KITT from Night Rider.
iirc theres an scsi drive in my basement that kinda looks like that
That’s what I was thinking. Could be that or a tray for an internal HDD.
yea that too
It’s a 5.25" HDD. That’s what they looked like.
HDD tray with external fan, I had one just like this.
I see. Thanks!
Rain.
Sitting on the 5.25" of the bay watching the drives roll away Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the 5.25" of the bay Wastin' time
Aftermarket hard drive maybe?
I think this whole rig is aftermarket. Happy times

Looks like a hard drive to me. All my hard drives used to look like that except with a black faceplate.
