    You might be able to get a couple at a PC service shop.

    Meanwhile, you can "borrow" two from the other HD.

    Like JohnWhoTwo said just borrow 2 from the other drive, you don't really need 4 screws holding the drive to the tray anyway. I just put the screws in opposite corners. They should come out very easily though.

    I ran my FX like that for a year, then it finally got to me, I can't stand having missing pieces, I know it does not effect anything :)
