Hard Drive Storage
« on: 08 October 2008, 16:12:35 »

Does any one know where I might be able to get hold of any of the hard drive boxes that the trade use to ship hard drives.

TIA.   :y

Or even where I could get a bundle of these

If its in the skip then it belongs to them so taking anything out could be construed as theft. Ask first  :y

I would any way but if the shops locked and they leave them in a skip at night.  Etc...... you know what the police would say if we left car parts in the garden  and they walked.   Too much paperwork and it's yourown fault. :-X

Cheers for that.  Have loads of them, sadly not quite what I am looking for. :-/

I was after the Seagate clear ones to store in my cuboard etc to stop circuit board dameage and collecting dust.

Other option I was after the trade delery boxes that hild 1- or 20 drives in the foam cut outs but just the one box.
