Hard Drive Holder (HDD, SSD & M.2)

cults3d

Our storage device for storage devices; a customizable hard drive holder design, is available now (for free). This design comes with support for several common hard drive form factors (including 2.5 inch, 3.5 inch and M.2) but you can adjust it to suit any size. Specify how many drives you'd like it to hold and how tilted you'd like the drives to be and an 'anti-topple' support will automatically be added (if required). You can fine tune it to add extra support and we've included some visual aids to help you. We've also included over 5,500 hard drive holder STLs that we've generated from this design. This design is completely free and shared under a permissive license. Your support is hugely appreciated. Did you know? Some of our designs cannot be found on Thingiverse.

This design has the following Customizer options: Drive Drive_Type - The type of drive Custom_Drive_Length - Custom drive length (Z axis) Custom_Drive_Width - Custom drive width (X axis) Custom_Drive_Height - Custom drive height (Y axis) General Material_Thickness - The thickness of the material Slot Number_of_Slots - The number of drive slots Slot_Height_Percent - Height of each slot as percentage of maximum possible Slot_Tilt - Degrees of tilt Drive_Gap - Amount of space around all sides of each drive Notch_Height_Percent - Notch height as percentage of maximum possible (set to '0' for no notch) Notch_Width_Percent - Notch Width as percentage of maximum possible Base Base_Radius - The radius of the base Additional_Topple_Support_Percent - Amount of additional topple support to add as percentage of maximum possible Topple_Support_Width_Percent - Width of the topple support to add as percentage of maximum possible Preview Drives_to_Show - Which drives to show in preview mode Show_Drives - Show drives in preview mode Show_Center_Markers - Show center markers in preview mode Design Considerations The anti-topple support at the rear of the design is calculated on the assumption that the hard drives' center of gravity is at the center point of the drive. If the center of gravity is off-center, it may be necessary to increase the Additional_Topple_Support_Percent value to compensate. Use the tools under the 'Preview' tab to help you.
