Raspberri Pi + HDD Enclosure by dbatkins

Last crawled date: 2 years, 10 months ago

I was messing around with turning my Raspberry Pi into a Plex Server, when I decided I wanted a single enclosure for both components. This fits a Raspberry Pi 4B, and a 3.5" HDD, and it sized to fit a random SATA to USB 3 connector.
Warning!!! The opening for the HDD SATA to USB3 connector is probably going to be totally different for your stuff. I HIGHLY recommend making sure it's the right size. Mine required a bit of filing afterward to fit snugly. While this was by design on my part, you may be sad if you didn't expect it.
The two lids are snap closures, with tight tolerances. As in,. I had to cut away a few things to make it fit perfectly. Again, I mostly meant to do that :-)
Please note, all the screw holes are set for 3mm screws. It's a little tight for the Raspberry Pi mounting holes, but those are the screws that I had on hand, so there. Fan mounting holes are for a standard 30mm Pi Case Fan.
Printing:
Infill - Adaptic Cubic 20% was used. Big whoop.
I printed it with a 0.6mm nozzle, in PLA.
I used the default "Support on build plate only" option in Prusa Slicer, and "Don't support bridges". This does leave a bit of stringiness in the Pi enclosure part, but it's on the inside and I didn't care!
Please see the picture of the splicer output for positioning and junk.
