Hard Drive Holder (HDD, SSD & M.2)

prusaprinters

<p>Our storage device for storage devices; a customizable hard drive holder design, is available now (for free).</p> <p>This design comes with support for several common hard drive form factors (including 2.5 inch, 3.5 inch and M.2) but you can adjust it to suit any size. Specify how many drives you'd like it to hold and how tilted you'd like the drives to be and an 'anti-topple' support will automatically be added (if required). You can fine tune it to add extra support and we've included some visual aids to help you.</p> <p>We've also included over 5,500 hard drive holder STLs that we've generated from this design.</p> <p>This design is*<strong>completely free</strong>* and shared under a permissive license.

If the center of gravity is off-center, it may be necessary to increase the Additional_Topple_Support_Percent value to compensate. Use the tools under the 'Preview' tab to help you.</p> <h3>Material</h3> <p>This design is perfect for printing in many filaments, including PLA, PETG and ABS.</p> <h3>Versions</h3> <ul> <li>1.2 (19 Jan 2022) - Added support for M.2 drives</li> <li>1.1 (24 Sep 2021) - Fixed typo (width &gt; height)</li> <li>1.0 (1 Jul 2021) - Initial version</li> </ul> <h3>Printing</h3> <p>Recommended slicer settings:</p> <ul> <li>Resolution: 0.1mm - 0.2mm</li> <li>Infill: ~20% recommended.</li> <li>Supports: Not required.
