Floppy drives for Solaris Ultra 5

I recently came into the possession of a couple of Solaris systems. One is a Ultra 5 and the other an Ultra 10. The Ultra 5 is missing its floppy drive and I can't seem to find a way to anchor the floppy drive that I do have (its a Newtronics/Mitsumi D359T6) in the case. The floppy ends up sitting right above the RAM with nothing to hold it in place.
Do places like Comp USA sell brackets or plates for floppy drives, should I buy online, or is my best bet to just take a trip down to the local wholesale?

There is a place on the web called anysystems.com that carries used Sun hardware. They would be a likely place to find what you need.

Thank you, but after noticing that they sell 4.3 GiB hard drives for 99 bucks, I'd rather take my chances with Comp USA.

NOOOOOOOO Hard drives are something else!!!!!! This is where i buy stuff that is manufactured only for Sun.
