After finishing mounting my mobo to the nzxt 410.. i lifted the case back up from it's side and i found this little guy underneath my case. What is this? I check everywhere to find a similar piece and i failed.. I am not sure what it is...

It looks like a base for the bottom of the PC case.

I'm thinking it's a rubber grommet for a hard drive mount. I've seen similar pieces on some cases.

It kind of looks like one of HDD rubber feet for keeping them from rattling. But those arent screws, just little rubber things. How many screws did you use for your mobo?

It isn't included in the parts list of the case. It's a mystery. That's it a mystery...
