"Why you young whippersnapper--I remember when full-size meant 8" full-high drives, and portable meant you could drag it by yourself!" MicroNet in Irvine has such bracketry for their own drives; I know not if they sell it separately. There used to be funny metal brackets so you could put full-high 5-1/4" drives into a II or IIx. Haven't seen 'em in a while. Alex
