[QUOTE="avner, post: 1543272, member: 312903"] Hey guys! So I started a new job and I was given a Mac pro A1186, its a 2006 model however the chassis is badly damaged and smashed up to the point where Its very difficult to open. I found a new chassis from early 2009 on ebay but I was wondering if the chassis are interchangable as far as the parts go? I compared two pictures side by side and it appears pretty similar other than the 2009 has some metal bay holder towards the bottom. Just hoping maybe someone that has experience with this kind of migration could give me a defintive answer so I could order the chassis right away if they are indeed compatible. [/QUOTE]
