3D model description

This enclosure pairs a Raspberry Pi 4, housed in an aluminum Flirc case, with a 2.5” SSD.

For more information on the Flirc case, please see: https://flirc.tv/more/raspberry-pi-4-case You can also find it on Amazon.

The 2.5" SSD shown is a Samsung 860 EVO, and there is a little window in the enclosure that lets you see that. Another Samsung 2.5” SSD which I have, the 850 EVO, is conveniently labeled in the same way so the window lets one distinguish between drives (at least, I assume, for the Samsung EVO line).

Of note, in the photo, the SATA to USB cable is plugged into the Pi's USB 2.0 port because my setup involves a Pi running Windows from the SSD; something that does not really work at this point with the three different SATA to USB cables which I have tested.

The enclosure has two screw holes in the bottom to secure the SSD, which may or may not be used as the drive stays in place just fine without them.

It also has four holes for screws to help suspend the Flirc case. Again, these may not be needed as the case should stay in place without them. However, I have set it up this way so the Flirc case will stay put even if it gets bumped or pushed. The screws used for this are the ones that come with the Flirc case.

Pro tip: I matched the colour of the enclosure to the Flirc itself. However, in another enclosure I printed I matched the colour of the printed enclosure to my LAN cable for easier cable management/identification!

The print was made with Autodesk Fusion 360, and the associated .f3d file is included along with the .stl file.

I used PRUSA Slic3r to create the printable file and put supports on the opening surrounding around where an SD card (note: not the SDD, but SD card) can be inserted into the Pi. please see this post for the best advice (with thanks to towlerg) on how to do that: https://forum.prusaprinters.org/forum/prusaslicer/for-support-enforces-only-not-behaving-as-expected/
No other supports were needed in the print.

Hope this will be of good use to you.
