installing a zip drive

[dvatt]

My roomate has a zip drive and he wants me to install it. Are there panels that fit around the outside of the face so the inside isnt exposed bc obviously the zip drive is smaller thatn the bay that it goes into.

is it an internal drive or external,,if its internal,it should have hardware to install it in case you can also try putting it in a Floppy Bay,,

 

[dvatt]

its internal but he wants to keep his floppy

If it is a some what new PC there is usually 2 floppy bays as a standard. If not the above mentioned would work just fine.

I have a 3.5in zip drive that is in a 5.25in bay
you need an adapter kit
so you can place a 3.5in drive in a 5.25in bay
