Not the wooley kind, the tiny black plastic things that control whether the drive is master or slave. My problem is, for one setup or other you always have to take the thing off completely, which means you've no chance of finding it again 8 months later when you want put it back.

Anyone got ingenious storage ideas for how to put them in a safe place that remains safe even after you forget about it?

Those little tubes Mini-Eggs come in (the purple ones) are excellent for keeping jumpers and case screws and other assorted little PC bits :thumbsup:

Yeah, I've got a few pots full of tiny screws and stuff, but I can never find the bit I'm looking for. Don't know why I bother really.
