Simple question about mounting pump, please look!

Hi, i have got a d5 vario pump that has a mounting plate with 2 holes in. I want to mount on the flat surface at bottom of drive bays.

Shall i drill 2 holes in the metal of drive bay floor or use self tapping screws?

What do you think?

What about using Velcro sticky pads? That way you don't have to damage your case.

Self tapping screws still need holes, they just don't need threaded holes. I like screws with nuts personally so tend to mount things with M3 screws, silicone washers and a nut on the underside.

Probably should have asked under the overclocking/cooling section.
