I am after just the screws to mount one of these (to the device, not to the rack), or even just knowledge of what size/thread screws are used. I've managed to lose the actual Mikrotik ones and google is failing me to find a sized to replace them.





I'm a geek, a gamer, a dad and an IT Professional. I have a full rack home lab, size 15 feet, an epic beard and Asperger's. I'm a bit of a Cypherpunk, who believes information wants to be free and the Net interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.

RB4011 uses M3 x 6 for it's oddball mounts. Source.

 

That looks about right though for the usual rack ears they use.

Can confirm M3x6, same screws that most laptops use for mounting the hard drive. Shout out if you need some, I can likely wrangle some

HDDs might not have the countersink head used on the rack ears.

Love your work GZ.

Can confirm M3x6 did the trick (and I now have 92 spares if anyone needs some lol)
