Mounting a 2nd Harddrive

I have a Dimension 3000. I want to install a 2nd harddrive.

I have "micky moused" this before by literally taping (electric tape) a 2nd harddrive to the floppy drive bracket, located directly below the disc drives (CD or DVD).

I have recently misplaced this floppy drive bracket and would like to know if anyone knows how to mount a 2nd harddrive inside of my Dimension 3000. Thanks!

The 3000 doesn't. You can buy the bracket from Dell parts (see below) or www.centrix-intl.com.

your 3000 doesn't have extra mounting brackets?

No, it doesn't have a second mounting bracket. Any ideas?

I did use a floppy bracket and taped it to it with electrical tape (it looked a little ugly but worked perfect). I can't find that floppy bracket, though.
