Rubber Thingies

[Orbius]

Hi, I'm putting a system together right now and I've heard so much about putting little rubber washers on the drive cage when you screw it in, that I really want some. I'd like to cut down on vibrations, does anyone know where I can pick some up online? Thanks.

rubber grommets?

You can get them at a local hardware store, probably... Don't know where to find them online.

Sorry didnt know the technical term.

The technical term: They are called Boogies.

Once I get some I'll flick a Boogie at you.

Also call them Rubber O-Rings, you can find them in the pluming department. Theres also a different kind that you buy a smaller screw...and a rubber kind of jacket fits over the screw, kinda of like a condom, and this rubber condom fills in the extra space between the thread and the smaller screw. Rubber screws would work good too! You can use em all in combination
