Hmmm... I wonder is it really necessary to have the brakets? If all you need
to do is keep the HD stabilized and still, how about some little pieces of
foam or something to wedge in between the HD and the HD area, so it won't move?

Yes there is a bracket one can use. The Powerbook Guy is selling 'em for $10. http://www.powerbookguy.com/duo.html#drives
And from experience, foam or other non-conductive (electrically) material will work, but you need to watch for heat conductivity. The drives need to be able to cool themselves, so make sure you're not insulating them thermally. They'll cook themselves to death.
Others have, in the past recommended zip ties.
