Fractal Design Node 304 case HDD mounting adapter

thingiverse

The HDD caddy for the (old?) Node 304 case only provides the mounting holes for TYPE2 pattern from the SFF-8301 specification (https://toshiba.semicon-storage.com/us/storage/support/faq/storage-holes.html). Some HDDs (e.g. helium-filled WD drives) use TYPE1, and mounting these drives on the caddy with more than two screws is impossible. This remix of Wookbert's design tries first of all to maintain the vibration absorption abilities offered by the "stock bushings", therefore it never has direct contact with the drive or with the screw head. It is also smaller (prints in about 30', with 0.15mm layers). It is however far trickier to install (I managed to install two without any problem, but the third was a pain and I broke two of these parts): it hooks onto the "unsuitable" hole and on the bottom of the plate, hence it protrudes by a couple of mm further down (towards the PSU).
