Coincidentally, my drive and the frame together fit perfectly inside my Lego walls, with a millimeter or 2 or 3 wide gap along the sides. That's perfect for some airflow to travel around the sides of the drive.

For the LED, which was blue, I scrubbed from this project, since I found it to be TOO bright. I found a yellow LED which fit inside the yellow brick. Then I glued it. I found that a CPU fan connector fit on the LED port, so I pulled it off the fan (didn't need it) and attached it here. Apparently, my electrical tape was stolen, so Plastic Wrap!!
