    I currently have an external hard drive container with a single hard drive
    capacity. I would like to have the ability to swap out hard-drives on a
    single device similar to this one except without having to go through all of
    the effort of screwing the drive down onto the mounts. I'm wondering if
    anyone manufactures a device that makes it simpler to remove and replace
    disk drives into the device. In my dreams, it might have some simple thumb
    screws too attach it to the mount so that all you would have to do is slip
    it in, connect the USB cable and power to the drive, tighten down the thumb
    screws, slip the cover over it, and plug it in and use it. I. e., you could
    change out a hard drive on this device in 5 minutes or less. Anyone out
    there know if there is such a device?

    Thanks,
    Greg Wallace

      ... Unfortunately, I already have a few kinematics mounts but, as I mentioned in my OP, these aren't ideal if you only want to move the mirror in one plane - as in tilting 'forward' to produce fringes from the fully compensated position of a MI. ... My "three screws in a triangle" comment is a mount has the spring-loaded screws in an equilateral triangle with one screw at the top centre of the plate that is set by the screws - this is the one you use to tilt the mirror forward for fringes. ... I'm using 1" square mirrors and a 1" cube BS and tried using Edmunds mounts for the mirrors, but I now realise that these are kinematic mounts and are not really suitable for what I want. ...
