2 Bay, 3 Slots, HDD Hot swap Case remix
Description
PDFI modified the design by shaztech to support a custom SATA backplane.
The backplane supports activity LEDs, fan connection, PWM fan input, Fan tach output, and drive hot-plug resistors.
To use without the activity LEDs, print just the back plane and back cover.
Additional models designed to use M3 heat-set inserts are included.
Pictures include PCB Revision 1. Current files are Revision 2
Additional required hardware:
- 5x M3x10mm
- 1x Fan screw (included with fan)
Post-Printing
Step 1 - Heat-set (Optional)
Install all M3 heat-set inserts (22)
Step 2 - LEDs (Optional)
Wire up LEDs and insert into slots
Use hot glue to hold LEDs in place
Insert LED wire thorough hole in the side of the backplane and attach to PCB.
Step 2 - Assemble PCB stack
Attach back cover to fan.
Install PCB retention screws (5)
Install fan mounting screws (3)
Attach PCB stack to base.
Step 3
Plug fan into PCB
Install assembly into PC case and hook up power and SATA connections
PCB details
PCB designed with KiCad 7.0.2 for OSH Park 4 layer stackup.
Inrush resistors (R4-R9) are optional.
Activity LED implementation does not currently work. ~~If you don't want activity LEDs, then R1-R3, Q1-Q3 and D1-D3 connectors can be omitted.~~
~~PCB can be purchased from my Tindie store at https://www.tindie.com/stores/tagno25/ or from OSHPark~~

- Shrink PCB to prevent interference with Back/Base screws
- Remove unused mounting holes
- Move PWM input location
- fix hole size and position of SATA (drive) mechanical support pins
- Move SATA (computer) closer to edge of PCB
- Added pin for fan tach output
- Fix activity LEDs
- Add solder jumper pads for inrush resistors
