yes, let me take pics of my one using resistor packs from a dead 120mb quantum pro drive ELS it is much much neater
I did consider using SMT parts, however i find they are very fiddly in situations like this, However an interesting idea would be to produce a small cuircuit board using smt parts, with pads right at the edge of the board. Then you could just stick the board down and solder it right to the pins, easy and neat
(like the QSB's used in the xbox modding community)
EDIT: Here is mk1, using the res packs, however it is permanently terminated
