External Drive Mount - Double

thingiverse

I designed this external hard drive holder to get a few of my WD Black drives off my desk space. I knew I needed air flow over these drives because they are passively cooled. The WD Black drives have a slick tech design and I wanted that to carry over into my drive holders. As I have several drives I wanted to make this a double design so that they mount two deep. The double design became impossible to support and then remove the support so I broke the build into two pieces and then attempted to optimize for the least support material when printing. There could certainly be some more design support around the tabs that hold the screws but it works. For assembling the two pieces I designed a rib so the second piece snaps onto the first. It isn't tight enough to hold your drive (most likely) but should be helpful when you super glue the two pieces together. Feel free to break it up and print in whatever orientation you prefer.
