thingiverse

This is a 3x 3.5" bay NAS cased based on an Odroid XU4Q (or XU4) single board computer.\r\nThe case has been designed and validated. \r\n\r\nA good starting point for the NAS software side can be found here: \r\nhttps://wiki.odroid.com/odroid-xu4/software/ubuntu_nas/ubuntu_nas\r\nThis configuration features 100Mb/s file transfer via a 1Gb Ethernet link. For HDD this is close to the theoretical maximum transfer speed.\r\n\r\nPlease leave comments for feature requests.\r\n\r\nThe compact version of this housing requires connections to 230/110V - high-voltage can be deadly!\r\nOnly commence this assembly, if you are trained to work with 230V. Seek help from professionals, if not.\r\nThere is an will be no explanation/plan of or support for the electrical wiring inside this NAS in this project.\r\nYou can always stick to the non-230V version and use external power supplies!\r\n\r\n\r\nParts needed for the housing:\r\n\r\nScrews for mounting HDDs 6-32 UNC 3/4 (phillips preferred)\r\n120mm Fan (a TC version for noise reduction)\r\n2x Fan grills to protect cabling & fingers\r\n\r\nFor 230/110V compact NAS:\r\nMean Well RS-25 12V 2A\r\nMean Well RS-25 5V 5A\r\nPower Inlet IEC320 C14 \r\n\r\nFor external panel mounted ports:\r\n1x HDMI \r\n1x Ethernet \r\n1x USB 2.0 \r\n1x USB 3.0\r\n\r\nYou can get most of these parts at Aliexpress or other sources.\r\nhttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/WSFS-Hot-Solder-Lug-Terminals-IEC-320-C14-EMI-Filter-Boat-Switch-Fuse-Holder/32833213235.html\r\nhttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/High-Speed-USB-3-0-Male-To-Female-USB-3-0-Extension-Cable-Wire-Computer-Host/32827197393.html\r\nhttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/USB-2-0-Extension-Cable-Male-to-Female-With-Screw-Panel-Mount-24AWG-28AWG-30cm-50cm/32780159315.html\r\nhttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/Gold-HDMI-Extension-Cable-Lead-High-Speed-HDMI-Male-to-Female-Ethernet-Extender-with-Screw-Hole/32700650084.html\r\nhttps://www.aliexpress.com/item/1pcs-30cm-8Pin-RJ45-Cable-Male-to-Female-Screw-Panel-Mount-Ethernet-LAN-Network-8-Pin/32807107289.html\r\n\r\n\r\nDevelopment Log:\r\n\r\n04.07.2018\r\n- Back side case v3 with adjusted stand-off for the Odroid XU4(Q) board. Now it can be mounted both ways without clearance issues with the HDMI connector.\r\n\r\n30.06.2018\r\n- Front side v3 with 120mm fan opening slightly reduced to make it fit to the fan inner radius (air tight).\r\n\r\n10.06.2018\r\n- The backside part is has been printed and tested but there is a collision at the panel ports with the upper HDD --> corrected in v2 models\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nCredits:\r\nThe renderings and drawings include modified models from GrabCAD.com and others like\r\nhttps://grabcad.com/library/odroid-xu4-2, https://grabcad.com/library/mean-well-rs-25-1, etc.\r\nUnfortunately, I can not trace back, where I got everything from.
