Drive caddies for Prestige

[Crossroads]

Hi

Does anyone have any Casablanca Prestige caddies (drive sleds) for sale?
I dont need the hard drives just the caddies. These seem very difficult to source.

Thanks

Hi Crossroads, Don't know where you are located but here is a work around if you can't find the Prestige caddies.
I have a Prestige and found the following of great use. Go the http://www.newegg.com. They are a computer supply in California. Search for Kingwin Mobil Rack KF - 21. you will find a Mobil Rack w/1 HDD tray for about $18. Under the rack there are additional trays for about $14.00. Now, if you are handy with basic wiring you will need an 18 inch ribbon cable 40 pin (computer) female both ends and an 18 inch 4 Pin Molex (hdd power cable) male/female. Open one of the Prestige caddies you have, remove the Hdd and the 40 pin cable connect the 40 pin ribbon cable to the 40 Pin connector on the Prestige caddy, connect the Molex 4 Pin to the 4 Pin connector on the Caddy. DO NOT REPLACE THE FRONT OF THE CADDY. Insert the caddy into the Prestige making sure that the caddy in fully inserted into the prestige.
With Power off connect the 40 Pin cable to the Kingwing Mobil Rack and connect the Molex 4 Pin power cable to the Mobile rack. Connect your HDD in the Mobil Rack Tray (be careful not to break the internal ribbon cable as it's a tight fit). Inserting the HDD and connecting it to the Tray is about 5 mins. Set the rack on top of the Prestige. The rack has a Key lock which also activates the power to the Hdd. You can purchase additional Trays for Hard Drives. Hope this helps. I realize that the Prestige caddies are getting hard to find. if you need to contact me my email is: roth2005@earthlink.net

Prestige/Renommee caddies are no longer manufactured so if anyone has second hand ones spare there may be a ready market.
