I haven't examined one in detail myself yet, but I'll try and describe
them :-).
They are basically black plastic strips, about the same length as the
drive they attach to. They are around 1cm wide and prob. around 4mm
thick. The plastic strip screws to the side of the drive, so that the
drive can then slide into metal rails in the HP drive cage. At one end of
the strip is a tab which locks into holes on either side of the drive cage
holding the drive into position - you release the drive by pushing the
two tabs in at the side and then sliding the drive out.
I'll try and point the old IndyCam at one of them tonight and get a
picture!
Cheers,
Tim.

The easy
question is, "does anyone have any spare rails they can sell
me," so I'll ask it anyway but I'm not expecting a yes <grin>. I
suspect these things are like hens' teeth, and HP no longer make them
apparently.
What do these look like? I've got piles of rails I'll likely
never use,
but I wouldn't know HP rails from another type...
