Design:

for 4x 2.5 HDD/SSD
HOT SWAP is possible. I really wanted that feature and couldn't find it anywhere on printable/makerworld
maximum airflow
yes, SATA connectors face/screw holes are angled in purpose; to keep the connection as parallels as possible with the SSD/HDD connector

pro tip: When screwing the SATA connectors: let them have a fair bit of wiggle, don't fix them tight. The wiggle will account for the last 0.5mm of potential misalignment between connector and SSD/HDD. Perfect fit guarantee.

Print:

No support ! Print face down see picture.
Tolerance are quite tight, make sure to take your time to print it (I used 0.4mm nozzle, 0.2mm layers)
