I've just bought one from eBay. It came with caddies, but using the caddy confuses me. There are these rubber topped post things to hold the drive in the caddy, but (I assume) due to the age of the caddy, the rubber is crumbling, causing them to not hold in the place where they go.

So how do I get my drives to stay in the caddy? Do I tape down the post? Or use a regular screw?

EDIT: I used some blue electrical tape over each post, and the drives appear to be working.
