An adaptor designed to fit a 2.5" HDD into a 3.5" HDD slot. Sliders could be generated which will fit into a HP ProDesk 600 G1 computer case. Multiple adaptors could be stacked and screwed together to fit multiple 2.5" HDDs into a single 3.5" HDD slot.
The model is parametric and can be adjusted to fit other cases.
Source code and further information is also available on my github page.
2023-10-28 - Small tweaks to better fit the case. Add more space for drive connecting screwheads.

Notes:
Even though I read somewhere that PLA is not suitable for HDD adaptors due to disks getting hot and PLA not being able to withstand the heat, I have been using PLA so far and haven't noticed any issues. I'm running a NAS where the disks are around 30°C in a room with ~20°C. And even on hot summer days the disks won't get near to any temperature where PLA would start to soften. PLA will begin to deform or warp at 60-65°C. Most HDDs are rated for 50°C, some for up to 60°C. So PLA should be fine for most use cases.
