Yeah I have it in carboard boxes and old motherboard boxes right now but it just takes up so much space and I can never find anything.

It would be great to have all ide cables and all usb cables and screws and all in one place.

I have a 20" (52cm) toolbox. Inside I have 2 organizers for screws, jumpers and other small stuff. Got the screwdrivers/ meters/ spareparts all in same place.

Right on. Those bins are cheap and sturdy. I have one wide 3 drawer bin, and one narrow 6 drawer bin. All my stuff is nice and organized.

I have a large tacklebox (like your idea) that I have been keeping all the little computer related parts in for 5 years. I also have one of those pocket tackleboxes that keeps all the screws separated and in one place. The big items are in the closet in the study organized in cardboard boxes.

I have bins mounted in the workshop for screws, cables and such.

Larger parts are bagged and boxed labled and then put on the shelf until sold.

I use those plastic drawer/cabinet things that target/walmart sells. They have two large drawers and two smaller drawers. I have 4 of them next to each other although I think you can stack them.
