100mm VESA To SSD 3d Printable Object

Categories: [3d Printing]
Tags: [raspberry pi]

I made a 3d printable VESA-to-SSD plate available for download here at Printables.com.

Description

This 3d printable plate has screw holes for a 100mm VESA mount and a 2.5" SSD. The "riser" height is 8mm with a 2mm plate depth, for a total of 10mm of added depth. Typical SSDs should have 1-2mm of clearance.

Download it here at printables.com.

I used it with my raspberry pi that needs extra storage attached, but it could be behind your monitor too.

If you're using counter-sunk screws, mounting the SSD "inside" the plate will have a flush bottom.
