Modular HDD Rack

thingiverse

The design files for this thing have been removed as a protest against Stratasys after their decision to file a patent infringement lawsuit against Microboards Technology. Their decision is extremely destructive and also underlines that the patent system is obsolete as it no longer serves any purpose for the betterment of society. Its main role is as a blunt weapon used by incumbents to hamper innovation. I see absolutely no reason to continue indirectly supporting Stratasys by providing free content to Thingiverse. First, a warning! I don't own a 3D printer yet. Mine only arrives in February. So this has not been printed!! (If you print it, please let me know if it works out) A modular racking system for external hard drives. Should be stack-able without slipping off, and allow for enough airflow to not overheat the hard drives. The main thing will be modified in V2 to allow an external HDD to stand upright on it's own. The only source files at the moment are SKP files. Sorry. Instructions Printing: Print 4 of the main object Print 4 of the short bars Print 12 of the long bars Create 2 sides Connect 2 sets of the main objects using 2 short bars in the side holes Final Assembly Insert the long bars into each of the 2 sides to connect
