QUOTE(Adin @ Dec 2 2010, 02:27 AM) It is very hard to find the hdd bracket now even in US...there are someone "fabricate" the bracket himself and I just followed his tutorial. It is on the first page = 10. Guide to Disassembling Asus G53Jw and Install 2nd HDD. can show me the link...

QUOTE(Adin @ Dec 2 2010, 02:33 AM) http://forum.notebookreview.com/asus-gamin...hard-drive.htmlmaterials used are simple, cardboard and double side tape. And the "home made" bracket is ONLY for ssd... Of course. It is on your own risk. If you want secure, better find yourself a genuine hdd bracket from asus. haha, using cardboard oso can  , scared it move and hold not tight enough and effect the whole system bcause os inside ssd...

QUOTE(Adin @ Dec 3 2010, 09:58 PM) I don't think someone is selling the K/B protector in Msia. Only sellers from China and Hong Kong selling it at ebay. Most of the member are using Zalman NC2000 which cost >RM200. I am using Cooler Master Ergostand, around RM100. Plus it got 4 usb ports. It is quite small if used with my G73 but still good enough for me. I am sure G53 will fit it well. Added on December 3, 2010, 8:59 pmJust received my G700 today  . Bought from 1 of the LYN member here. Got the link for the TPU keyboard protector seller from China and Hong Kong at ebay? Why u all using's cooling pad so expensive one? any different between what we can buy from pc fair and those u mention above? Adin, why u still buy a mouse?...asus free gaming mouse not nice enough?
