Raspberry PI X: Amored PI HDD Case

thingiverse

My RaspBerry PIes have a lot to do in an unfavorable environment, so they are installed in the [Amored case for the PI3](https://amzn.to/2UmpCdJ) (the black one in the pics) respectively the [Amored Case for the PI4](https://amzn.to/39kQrDl) (the grey one). All my PIes are [booting](https://www.tomshardware.com/news/boot-raspberry-pi-from-usb,39782.html) from some old or cheap [2.5" SSD hard drives](https://amzn.to/3ak4URo). It is quite easy, you only need a corresponding [USB 2 SATA adapter](https://amzn.to/2JikEIN) and just the hard drive. Because it is quite impractical, if the hard disk dangles loosely on the RaspBerry, I have constructed a simple and quick to print bracket. The RaspBerry or the lower part of the Amored housing is held by the tabs, the 2.5 "SSD should be secured with 4 screws become. By screwing the SSD, the Raspberry PI is held securely by the two clamps. The bracket is suitable for the RaspBerry PI 3 and Model 4. The connections are still easily accessible. I print the case upright and therefore with rafts and supports because the case is quite thin-walled. Updates: 2020/11: Minor changes to make the Case suitable for the [UGREEN USB 3.0 SATA Adapter](https://amzn.to/2ISHoCt), from which the Raspberry PI 4 can also be booted. Note: In the United States, the same cases are *probably* available [here for the PI3](https://amzn.to/2UkD55Y) and [there for the PI4](https://amzn.to/2JkZUjy).
