Like tat also can ar???
Hahaha...good idea anyway...
Then what ya gonna do with the isi-isi perut u cleared from the modem?

Build an external casing with it?
I think it'll cost more than u buy a new set....

But it'd look cool after modding...
With led lights if u able to do it..lolz...
And fan too...

Btw i have like 4-6 of these stuffs...
maybe u could mod mine if u succesfully mod yours.

removed the screw and open the modem case

internal


top panel


bottom plate


2.5" Toshiba HDD taken out from an old notebook

tools




waterproof sandpaper


marked & masked


cut the hole with little yellow pvc pipe saw now my hand damn pain




damn hot 2day, drink this to cool me down while i'm working outdoor

the isi perut still leave it under my table now, not sure what will be do 2 it later

i think the most expensive part is buying the ide > usb adaptor kit. i can get this around RM40 in lyn.

waa, your "yellow" saw patah adi you masking tape?
dangerous..... get a new one

no lah i put masking tape there so that my hand can hold and reduce my finger hurt

Why not? As I always say, what can mod oso mod. what cannot mod oso mod.

hmm.. wonder what will be the look after finsih??

UPDATE: 6/12/2006

the top cover hav some blockage on the bottom site, so saw it away so that my mesh can fit in

the bottom part had been drill to increase air ventilation

the "hole" design


results,


thats all for 2day.

will be digging some left over acrylic from my old project to build a rack 2 support the hdd.

Dude,ur square hole ain't that square.Fix it!

haha interesting mod i wonder if we can do the same with an old CD-ROM case haha

i make it not exactly square becoz wanted to follow back the curve design of the modem.

like what uncle ianho say, "what also can mod", u can giv it a try

2day actually plan 2 spray the case 1, but end up raining in the evening.

UPDATE: 8/12/06

painted the case 2day.
