Take a piece of paper, turn the hard drive over (screw holes up), cover
with paper and scrape a pencil over the hole locations. Place the hard
drive where you want to mount it, trace around the hard drive. Trim the
paper close to the impression, tap to the part of the chassis where you
want the hard drive and where the impression is, drill the holes and use
the screws to mount it there. It worked for me!

I was going to use Blu-Tak or something like that if I ever
found how to make it run slave drives.
The space under the CD is for large-format (5.25" ?) drives, and you
can get extension pieces that screw on to both sides of a 3.5" hard
drive to make it the right width. If your 'Max isn't going to be moved
much, it's probably not worth bothering. By the time you cram in all
the cabling and close up the case, it's pretty tight in there, I reckon.
