Whity's rugged box edited to fit external USB HDD (WD My Passport) and keep it safe (mainly against impact damage, but creating a rubber plug for the cable opening is on my mind - then dust and partianlly even water should be kept away from the devidce). 

A rubber suspension and a rubber cable retainer are added and opening for the USB cable is created.

Latches and hinges are parametrized to fit 3 mm rods rather than bolts (I don't fancy the look of the bolt head there), but using Whity's parameters, you can modify it back easily.

Printed with ASA for the main body, PETG for latches and TPU (cca SHA 90) for padding. The rubber padding is designed to print in vase mode with a 0.6 mm nozzle. The lid padding can be printed as many times as you see fit (mainly depending on your rubber hardness - personally printed 4 pcs).

The padding is glued into the case - therefore, I'd not recommend printing the case with PETG and rather using some cyanoacrylate-friendly materials.

In the enclosed .STL file, the lid is exported without the contact information on its inner face.
