I can comfirm that this does indeed work, as I have
done similar when I
was upgrading the drive in My Octane and only had one sled.
Before I made a few sleds, I didn't even do that for my O2K -- just
slide in the drive, and put a small rubber window wedge under the front
edge. Crude, but effective, if the machine doesn't get moved about.
