Mike and Frank are picking and dreaming in California. Then dreams become reality when Mike falls for the sweetest classic Ford pick-up he’s ever seen.
Get the drive here: https://kings.tn/UV400itm This video is from our friend Igor at the Inspire to Make channel. He shows he modified the USB SATA drive case included with our SSD bundle kits by creating a steampunk-themed wood, leather and brass case. He will be using another 120GB UV400 SSD (solid state drive) and the connector board from the USB SATA enclosure provided to him by Kingston. He shows us how he cut, routed and glued the particle board case, cut a hole for the connector, wrapped it in stained leather and included a pressure gauge inlay, needle and glass cover, a vacuum tube, cut and folded brass sheets and nice big brass screws to accent the case design and give it the steampunk look.
Check out the Inspire to Make channel’s other video where Igor mods a SNES cartridge into a SATA case with a UV400 SSD: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttYmX-1I8RU&list=PLAsUq-kEMSD4lwB38C1SkFr6Im8oKGcZJ
If you want to do this mod make sure you get the bundle kit version (part number SUV400S3B7A/120G, linked above) since that one includes the USB SATA enclosure.
