Though this does make one think that it may not be
that hard to steal the
paper filter from an existing (larger) HEPA filter , cut it to the proper
size, and hot melt it into the old filter casing...
Of course, bear in mind you're in for some spectacular crashes if the filter
media you get at home depot doesn't have exactly the same airflow (density)
as the one you replace. The air flow through the filter media is very
carefully calculated to get the right amount of air into the media cavity so
the heads can fly on that cusion of air. I seem to recall the head disk gap
on a 7906 is about 20 microinches or so? I don't think I'll be playing "test
the unknown filter media" games anytime soon.
