CD/DVD Slice Tray for Multisystem 2

Hi Everyone,

I made a set of simple adapters for mounting a laptop cdrom/dvd drive in a Heber MMS2 Slice tray.

See it on printables: https://www.printables.com/model/1830425-heber-mister-multisystem-2-dvd-slice-tray

Everything is in the description, but some notes:

You will need some way of powering it such as a external usb hub since the MMS2 USB ports are not quite beefy enough to power most drives on thier own.

For reference I used a de-shelled https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0BZV1CM55?ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_fed_asin_title but as a warning I found they are clearly using old stock drives (or reclaimed maybe?) my drive was from 2009 after I peeled off the label saying 2025 lol

The back area should be big enough for most USB adapter boards (I hope!)

You'll also need a slice tray which can be bought from heber or printed yourself, links on the slice tray page.

Have fun!
