Not my specialty, but I've worked on my own drives. Try with the cover off. Does the spindle latch in and the optical sled move into proper position while horizontal.

Even if you don't keep full systems, you can keep around parts that might be interesting in the future. That BX motherboard might be interesting, for instance, depending on how much expansion it has and what the VRM can do.

It's no longer about the plausibility or even possibility of his claims. I'm going to take any statements from DS with a salt lick (or indifference) until he begins to act more transparently in a way consistent with wanting to actually earn the trust of the wider world.
