I just bought THIS case! <LOL>
Replacing a brand new case just because it lacks one "busy light" seems a
bit extreme. :)

My little "LED box" is left over from another project I built years ago,
and it is so easy just to plug it into the COM port that it seems like
wasted effort to build/wire something new.

I *know* I've seen VB code before that "records" disk activity (years ago),
so I'm certain it can be done.
