Sabrent USB 3.1 - SATA wall-mount cradle

thingiverse

This is a simple wall-mount cradle for the popular Sabrent USB 3.1 to SATA 2.5" adapter everyone's using. I've found it handy to secure an SSD as a boot drive for my Raspberry Pi, which is attached to a wood panel housing my network equipment. The cradle consists of two parts: a top and a bottom that are connected with four M3*10 bolts paired with standard M3 hex nuts. A slide port on the side allows for fastening the drive through its standard 2.5" mounting points, secured by M3*10 bolts, which provide about a centimeter of lateral slide to accommodate varying drive sizes. All hardware is recessed and sits flush or below the surface. The cradle also features two wall-mount tabs on the bottom inside, countersunk for smaller wood screws with around 1-1.5 mm clearance between the surface and the drive, allowing for screws that don't sit flush. Feel free to use it as you see fit; I'd appreciate any feedback if you find something that could be improved!
