10 inch rack 1U - 3.5 inch hot swap

1U 2x 3.5 HDD hot swap bay.

Fully 3D printable. 

Printing:

• No supports.
• The cages are printed flat.
• The bay is printed on front face. 

Assembly instructions: 

1. Mount the 3.5 inch HDD in its cage.
2. Mount the SATA adapter loosely (the distance between the mounting holes is slightly larger than the minimum required for some wiggle room).
3. Insert the cage with the HDD mounted in the bay so it connects with the SATA adapter. 
4. Tighten the SATA adapter.

I'm thinking of making a recess so a label can be printed and glued on to name the cages. A SDD version is coming up!

If you have any requests or feedback, feel free to leave a comment and I'll try my best!
