Looking for Define R5 drive bay

Looking for Define R5 drive bay

I'm looking to buy a drive bay for the Define R5. It's the one that sits in the middle and can carry a boatload of disks. The R5 case that I found is missing this bay, and if I want to be sure I can expand my NAS into these slots.

The bay is the "top HDD cage" that sits in the middle of the box (see the red encircled part in the image). I contacted Fractal but they no longer stock this item as the case is EOL. The official SKU for the upper HDD cage is: SP-FD-TOPHDDCAGE-001-BK.

Can anyone help me out? I noticed some enthusiast pages in Japan but that will probably not be of any help 😄 .

Broke off actuator for flat SATA/Power cable on NUC11TNHi5

On the motherboard of my NUC11TNHv5 there is a little 16-pin connector. It connects to an internal 2.5" SSD using a flat cable.

Of course I had to fat-finger the actuator on the connector and I broke it (see images).

If only I had the exact part number of the connector I might have a chance of getting the actuator off one and replace mine. If that bit is called the actuator, I have no clue 😄 .

So do you know what the part number is or where I can get one? Alternatively, can anyone give me any tips on how to use the port without the actuator? Maybe glue it in place?

Finally found a job!

It's taken me a while... I must have applied for hundreds of jobs over the last few years. I haven't officially signed yet, so thumbs crossed.

To be honest I was getting more and more depressed. I worked for a big high-tech multinational for 20 years so I obviously have qualities, but job interviews aren't really my thing - perhaps that was a factor?

For the past few months I was helped by a job coach. In my country you can get one for free for at most 2 years if you've been out of a job for a long period. The coaching even continues after you've landed the job, to help you transition.

One thing I'm not sure of is if I should ask for an adjustment period where I only work a certain percentage of a full-time job - perhaps 75% or so. I'm afraid this would make them think again and not go through with the offer? I don't want to lie either, so I'm tempted to just try to go for a 100% employment from the start. Recruiters told me that asking for a lower percentage was actually why I was getting rejections all the time.

Any thoughts?
