Mounting the hard drive






Now that the uIEC PCB is secured in place and the wiring complete it was time to put the hard drive in. I decided that I would use a standard hard drive/dvd drive type floppy power connector as the basis for providing power internally, as you can see. I had an old power pass through lead that had a 5v tap off (it was in my junk box, no idea what it was originally used for) so I used that to supply power to the uIEC. The twisted brown and white lead provides power to the green power led mounted on the front panel of the casing. The two photo's above show the before and after shots.
