3.5 inch Hard Drive Wall Or Surface Mount

thingiverse

I needed a simple and efficient way to attach a 3.5 inch hard drive to any flat surface, so I created this mount specifically for vertical wall mounting. I designed it to use minimal filament while still allowing for up to 12 prints on a standard 200x200mm bed. The mount is also versatile, working equally well from either side, as the surface-mounting holes are spaced to avoid obstruction. As a quick note, you may need to increase your slicer's length by about 1-2% to ensure proper fitment of some hard drives. I've noticed that the screw holes on the mount can be slightly too close together in certain cases, but this adjustment should prevent any issues. If you've already printed it and find it a bit short, try cutting the mount in half at its midpoint for some extra flexibility. Please use this at your own risk! You're the only one who truly knows the value of your data and whether to trust a custom-made part with its physical security.
