    Default LED Mod

    i changed the led on a 31/2" floppy drive from green to blue so it would match my case theme better. here are the pictures

    i got the led from a old led gun lighter i ripped up.

    LED - Before


    LED - After


    Floppy - After


    it was a quick and easy mod and i'm happy with the results.

    i was just testing it on a old pc. i'm probably never even going to use the drive but i just want it in my case becuase i'm so used to having them. once i learn how to use ms money i will use it for backing up files like my dad does.


    once i get my dvd drive(s) i will mod them too with blue LEDs.

    As for the floppy drives, I have an external one (and a few in older pc's). I find having one is great...especially when using memtest! Great utility, and nice if you have the bootable floppy and a floppy drive.

    I boot to USB. It's faster, easier, and you don't have to carry around a bulky floppy.

    Gotta love it. Once you start modding things. You see all your electronics so much differently =P. Seems like everything can be changed somehow or another. Loved the mod though.
