I've been interested in buying several drive bays, for housing a number of 2.5 in drives.
Examples:
* KINGWIN KF-251-BK Dual 2.5 Bay: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817990011
* KINGWIN KF-253-BK 2.5 & 3.5 Bay: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817990016
Questions:
* Background: When it comes to to HDD's, not SSD's, the underside of many drives have part of their electronics exposed.
* Question: If I put a 2.5" hard drive into the 2.5" bays, and the underside electronics of the drive come in contact with metal trays, which appear to be made of steel or at least some other conductive metal, won't that likely cause problems with the drive, such as shorting it out or greatly increase issues with electrostatic discharge?
