thingiverse

Slot-in type Raspberry Pi Cluster Enclosure. You need no glue. It has 10 device slots. 2.5 inch SSD (7mm height) takes 1x slot. Raspberry Pi with PoE HAT takes 2x slots. So, it can hold 10x 2.5 inch SSDs max or 5x Raspberry Pi with PoE HAT max, or combination as you like. and, it has space for PoE Switch (164mm width max, 35mm height max, 105mm depth max) You don't want to use PoE HAT? then you can use short side parts and open top parts. It provides easy access to Raspberry Pi's HDMI ports and USB Power Connector. You want to use Passive cooling? then you can use open top/bottom parts. It might provides more passive airflow. **Print parts list:** * 1x top parts * 1x bottom parts * 2x side parts * 2x beam parts * 1x fan bracket parts (if you want to use 8cm cooling fans) * Some tray If you want to use full size case: * 2x stopper parts (if you don't want to use cooling fan, then you need 3x stopper parts, ) If you want to use short size case: * 1x stopper parts (if you don't want to use cooling fan, then you need 3x stopper parts, ) **Off print parts list:** * Some Raspberry Pi 3B and 4B * Some 2.5 inch SSD with USB-SATA cable * PoE+ (802.3at) Ethernet switch, best fit for Netgear GS305P/GS308P Series. * 2x 8cm cooling fan with tapping screws (if you want) * Power supply for cooling fan (if you want) **Notes:** * Sample photo is very early prototype, its shape is slightly different from the current model. * I recommend SSD than HDD. Because this casing has no anti-vibration measures. * If you want to use cooling fan, I recommend [USB to 12v booster cable](https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B07FQLW1F1) and [DC fan connecter multiplexer](https://www.amazon.co.jp/dp/B0B72N27HX/). **Future plans** * Less print materials **If you have any ideas for improvement, please let me know in comments!**
