Bill of Materials
Description
This is a functional protective case specifically designed for external DVD/Blu-Ray writers. Printed in TPU, this cover acts as a protective "skin" that enhances both the stability and the longevity of your device.
Why this model?
External slim drives are lightweight and often vibrate significantly during high-speed spinning. This can lead to noise, read/write errors, or the device sliding across your desk. This cover is designed to solve these issues:
- Vibration Dampening: The TPU material absorbs the mechanical micro-vibrations generated by the motor, ensuring a quieter and smoother operation.
- Anti-Slip Grip: Provides a high-friction surface that keeps the drive firmly in place on any desk or workspace.
- Enhanced Protection: Protects the chassis from scratches and small impacts, especially useful if you carry the drive in a laptop bag.
- Perfect Fit: Designed to allow full access to the front loading tray and the rear USB port without removing the cover.
Recommended Print Settings
- Material: TPU (95A or 85A for maximum shock absorption).
- Walls: 2 or 3 for the right balance between flexibility and structure.
- Infill: 10-15% (Gyroid recommended).
- Supports: Not needed
Assembly Instructions
Simply slide the drive into the cover. The elasticity of the TPU will ensure a snug, secure fit. Make sure to align the USB port and the eject button with the dedicated openings.
