Sometimes I go a little overboard when it comes to cable management. This is one of those times.

The Beleth's Drum module from Kero's Mac Mods (https://en.infinityproducts.co.jp/shop-1) is a neat little PCB that uses a relay to simulate the sound of a mechanical hard drive. Normally you'd connect its input to the activity LED output on a BlueSCSI or similar emulator. I came up with a neater solution.

This bracket allows you to mount Beleth's Drum directly to the back of a version 1 BlueSCSI. This works really well because, due to some serendipity, the appropriate terminals on both modules line up almost perfectly. Just use some short wires or stiff leads to connect the two as shown in the cover photo. You'll still need to provide power to Beleth's Drum through its Berg connector, but a crafty individual could also figure out how to steal that from the BlueSCSI too.
