External 6.5" Drive Enclosure

thingiverse

New hardware made my PC tower obsolete for optical drives. This enclosure slides onto a standard 6.5" optical drive, allowing connections to be easily accessed. Before printing, verify that the connections on the intended drive align with the slot, although they should generally be universal. Note: I disclaim any liability for damage to property resulting from the use of this file or its derivatives. Print Settings Printer Brand: SeeMeCNC Printer: Rostock MAX v2 Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2mm Infill: 0% Notes: Print with a spiral vase (or equivalent) to achieve one perimeter with zero infill. It is recommended to have three solid bottom layers at 0.2mm. Be sure the connection slot is sliced so it does not attach to the main housing; after printing, that section should simply fall away. Otherwise, you will need to cut it away. Printed with these settings, it took slightly over four hours. Post-Printing My print had a slight warp on the flat side. I heated the flat side slightly and pressed it onto a flat surface to make it level.
