anyone know where i can get an internal hard drive tray for a 8500/120? I picked it up on the cheap without a hd, have one to use but no tray.
thanks.

You can use it without a tray (commonly called a sled). I have a 4 GB drive sitting in my G3 without a sled. To keep it more stable, I just put a peice of cardboard on each side. Never had a problem with it.

The Mac Information Depot. Why go anywhere else?

Just be careful not to let any metal parts short circuit the circuit board. I know from experience
Although its fixed now

Here is a place that I've used before. They have lots of hard to find stuff available! http://www.pidrus.com/sleds.html

Here's a place to find your 3.5 in. 8500 sled.
Tell them you need the screws, too!
There are complete installation instructions and hints on the site.
