Since i wanted to expand my NAS further but ran out of 3.5" slots i wondered if it was possible to add some more 2.5" drives to it.. So i designed a small 5.25" drive bay (2 5.25" bays high) that can store up to 6 2.5" drives and 1 80 mm x 80 mm fan for ventilation. Drives are just "pressed" into the cages. After testing 8 different drives all nicely fit to the knobs on the ground and so a glued lid was not neccessary. Also the cages are meant for drives of up to (and including) 1.5 cm thick drives (Reference drive for measurements: 4TB Seagate 2.5"). Printing: I printed everything using a raft on my FLSUN QQS-Pro with supports for everything with more than 40°. Slicing was done in simplify 3D.
