I recently acquired this case, but is completely empty.
I can't find an image or a review or anything.

I have no use for it as it is completely empty, no 3.5 caddy.
I'd like to see how it looks inside to determine if I need to pass it on or I can do anything about it (like adapting or 3d printing).

Thanks for any help.

How did you find this? I've been onto it for 2 days. It's either a huge facepalm or you have magic skills.
Thanks a lot!

Edit: it's too much work for me to restore it to old glory. I'm definitely parting with it.

I'll start things that I know are gonna take me ages to finish, but it still seems life is too short to piece together a 95% incomplete proprietary system that probably wasn't common enough to do so very practically 30 years ago when it was still only a little past it. Possibly someone would be delighted to find the case though, if they bought a complete one and UPS did the usual unscheduled modifications in transit.

If I was tripping over it here, I'd go "Oooh, that looks kinda like an Amiga, I'll mod it for mATX and low pro cards and run Amithlon, AROS or something on it.. " ... for expedient drive lashings, I'd consider pipe strapping or dollar/discount store meccano/erector-set kits.

Unicorn herding operations are proceeding, but all the totes of hens teeth and barrels of rocking horse poop give them plenty of hiding spots.

It's not that useful, ok. What do I do with it? Nothing. Not even going for pipe strapping.
There are better options.

I have no use for this old case = you want it you get it.

Getting rid of it is my main goal now.
