I completely agree with you. And I've seen that picture a thousand times while researching these. That display HyperDrive case is awesome.
he eBay one was definitely a gamble but the first one I bought from Craigslist (the HyperDrive 10) was from the original owner who had the upgrade done at great expense originally. It actually came with all of the Mac 512k manuals and original floppies plus the keyboard, mouse and the plastic Macintosh box that the docs came in save for the fact that it was not in great condition and further disintegrated in shipping. I had to throw it away. Sadly, the HyperDrive manual was not among the manuals but the warranty cards were
If you make one of those cases, I'd love if you could make an extra set of the plexiglass inserts. I'll cut the case manually, if I have to. You're only touching the rear bucket so it's not too bad to build. The funny part of those cases pictured is that you have to look closely but they don't actually have a HyperDrive in them nor any of the parts (at least in the closer one)
