    Hi guys and gals,
    My AW M18x r2 has lost something from the motherboard. Its the small beige clip that holds the hard drive caddy cable into the motherboard - it was only holding itself in on one side, and seems to have dropped out and gone AWOL on my last strip down.

    Does anyone have one spare they can sell me please - maybe you are parting a machine out? If not, would anyone know a part number from a component supplier that will suit? At the moment a small piece of plastic and blu-tak are holding her together, which as you can imagine is a bit intermittent!

    Many thanks.

    I can sell you a couple if you are interested. PM me if you are interested because this is not the proper forum to negotiate "sell and buy" related topics
