FractalDesign Node 304 Case: Mounting Extender for Western Digital HDDs (fixes missing screw hole problem)
thingiverse
[Fractal Design’s Node 304 MiniITX case](https://www.fractal-design.com/products/cases/node/node-304/black/) is a popular, sleek NAS enclosure (e.g. for use with [FreeNAS](https://www.freenas.org/)). It has room for 6x 3.5" full height HDDs. When I upgraded to 8TB Western Digital WD80EZAZ Desktop Series Hard Disks I ran into the problem that these disks are not following the screw hole standard for 3.5" HDDs and are missing the middle screw holes (see images above). I've created an extender so these WD drives are mounted through at least 3 screws. The images are self-explanatory I guess.
