If your Mac Pro has a scratched or damaged case, here is a tutorial to completely replace it.
Anyone can do it, but the disassembly and reassembly are very long steps. Patience is the key to success.

Bonjour, j’ai un mac pro 5,1 de 2010 dont les clapets (ou les trappes, j’ignore le terme exact) de la baie des lecteurs de disques restent ouverts à chaque fois qu’ils sont actionnés. Je n’ai pas réussi à les démonter, et les 2 gouttes de 3 en 1 sur les glissières latérales n’ont rien changé au problème. Je n’ai trouvé aucun tutoriel, ni même aucune occurrence de ce problème sur le web. Pourriez-vous me donner quelques conseils ? Merci.
Amazing explanations and perfect picture track on each move made.
Thanks much - this was very helpful :)
