NoVibes III combined tray?

Post by anakintjc » Sat Jul 21, 2007 4:59 am

Hi,

I own a Antec Sonata (I) and my system is fairly quiet but the resonance of my hdd's is disturbing me!

I surfed the internet and found out that the NoVibes III (from noisemagic) is
a pretty good product...

Now my question is : i see there excist trays :

They are for the Antec P-150 but will they fit in the sonata too?

Does anybody know if the hdd trays from the P150 are compatible with the antec sonata?

Measurements of Sonata HDD tray: 114mm wide, 93/125mm deep, 21/24mm high. Depth is for tray/tray+locking, height is for tray/tray+dent. Locking edge is 15mm from front.

Height 2,1 cm
Width 11,4 cm
Depth 9,3 cm

These are actual measurements I took of a tray of mine. Now if someone could do the same for a P150.

Update:
Antec spare parts P150 tray at http://www.antec.com/Detail.bok?no=515
Antec spare parts Sonata tray at http://www.antec.com/Detail.bok?no=514

Look pretty identical to me except for the grommets. I'd order three but they don't sell those in the EU. :evil:

I’m sure the P150/Solo trays are wider. 130mm, IIRC. The extra width is to accommodate the optional hdd suspension.

Alrighty. Customer feedback to Antec store maybe, get them to list measurements?

P150 tray is 130mm wide - just measured it.

anakintjc might want to contact NoVibes to see if they plan Sonata versions.
