I'm redoing my case for my wc setup, fully customizing it out, and am in the process of making a cd drive mount.

Does mcmaster sell screws that will fit the holes of cd drives? If so, whats the product # ?

i can't find any =/

Optical drives (as well as floppies) use a 3-.5mm screw.
Hard drives (as well as most case screws) are 6-32.

You can easily retap the opticals to accept 6-32 screws and thereby unify your screws making life a bit easier.

I just use the big ones with the ziggy thing under the flat bit on everything... DVD, floppy, HDs, motherboard...
