Since mine is an optical drive, mischievious x-rays aren't much of a concern for me. Also Dennis is probably accurate in his observation, Metal drive housings would be pretty handy in most instances to fend off xrays.
I think my best option is someone who has either done it before or can point me to a blue print or some sort of exploded diagram showing what the heck pieces I'm dealing with. I'm serious about describing how durable the plastic this case is made out of are. I pryed the back plate out to about an inch and ended up with a 'bend' in it of less than 1/8th of an inch. Sigh. I also can't get a sturdy enough blade into the incredibly well 'glued' seams along the bottom.
