Custom 3D Printed External Drive Enclosure

Recommended Posts

I just got done printing and fitting these together for my new build. I'm going to have 2 of these (one with 2TB drives, one with 8TB drives), but it was dirt cheap and a lot easier than finding a case that will fit 8 3.5" drives.  Can be used with or without the fan shroud on the front, but I had 2 Fractal Design 120mm fans in my drawer unused. They'll be powered by a 240w ATX power supply I had laying around with a switch put between the green and black pin to turn on or off and a 1M SAS -> 4 SATA cable plugged into an IBM ServeRAID M5015.

 

If anyone's interested in the STL files for this, I'll throw them up on thingiverse.
