Just a quick question, is your hard drive window flush with the cut out or is it behind it?

He might have followed this tut but he got it from somewhere else so those aren't his pictures. But the HDD window in the picture is flush.

Re: How to install lights in HDD
yes the hdd is flush. you can tell because theres not a little drop down from the cut to the plexi.

i have a question though could you use a short cathode or would it draw to much energy. because i dont like the spot light effect i like a nice even glow. i can cut the cathode tube and insert inside the case without the tube

Yes, but I dont know how much volts it's giving out so I don't know how to use it, could you do it for me and find out how big the resistor needs to be for wiring 6 3mm LEDs?
