Hard disk dimensions

Yes, these will be compatable with Serial ATA drives when they first come out on the market. The great thing about them thought is the length of cable between motherboard and Hard Drive.

I just need the overall dimensions as well as the bloting pattern for them so I can customize my computer desk to hold them where I want them to be placed.

Yeah,

I would do that but I'ld prefer getting EXACT dimensions and bolting locations. This will be a very exact design that I intend to make. I don't want any discrepencies whatsoever.

It must be precise.

Umm,

Just curious, are you a designer? Because it really doesn't seem like it.

I'm trying to design something that MUST BE EXACT.

If you can't wrap your head around the concept, then don't waste people's time.

Sorry man,

I'm just getting cheesed that I can't find what I'm looking for and no one out there is able to help with what I really need.

I'm also looking for a bolting pattern for standard motherboards because I'm trying to design a new desk for myself. If it turns out to be really nice, I might try to market and sell it retail. That's why I need these items to be EXACT from a manufacturer or someone who builds cases.

I have several old ATX cases and could try figuring out the dimensions myself, but if I get something wrong I'll have wasted time, money and materials. Three things I'm not really willing to waste.

My overall design idea is to have an L-shaped desk, with the monitor in the corner. There will be an elevated platform on which the monitor sits. Inside this elevated platform will be my CD, DVD and floppy drives, right in front of my keyboard. There will also be pre-determined locations for Mouse and keyboard transmitter, web cam, speakers (including sub woofer), foot rest, joystick, and a pile of other items. I'm starting to look for exact mesurements and dimensions of different items (lots I already own but having the manufacturer's info would be more exact).

Sorry again, but I'm getting frustrated with some people's repies. I'm looking for something in particular and people keep telling me to fudge it a bit by measuring myself. I have a post in the motherboard section too, and that's what's been happening all along.

Thanks for your understanding. Sorry for loosing my cool.

Thank-you so much,

The ATX motherboard form factors has some of what I require. I am so glad to see that you could help me out with some of my requirements.

I'll be able to start with some of my designs now.

I am starting to feel a bit better. The queazyness in my stomach is going away.
