d packet of screws not cost more than 10 bucks

or if u got small screws, try usin them, c if it fixes d hdd 2 d cabinet frame, den u wudn't have 2 buy d packet of screws

See this image captured by me:

Guess now how to fix ur HDD. Just connect the cables present inside ur cabinet. The colored connecter is the power supply. The data cable is not visible in the image. You can see the screws, where they're fixed.
