Description
I have a Gotek drive and CF-IDE card reader for my Amiga 4000.
As I already use the 5,25” bay for a CD-ROM drive, and one of the 3,5” bay’s for the original Floppy drive, I needed another solution.
My A4000 has a standard height floppy drive, so there is room for two 3.5" drives.
My idea was to try to combine the two in a single 3,5” drive bay.
Printed with a couple of small support enforcers on the front part.
If you want to be creative you could make a filament change so the logos on the front are more visible.
What you need:

Start by disassembling the Gotek Drive
Gotek side by side with the CF-IDE card reader
Remove the breakpoints on the Gotek PCB
Solder an upright pin header, and wires for the LED.
Be careful not to damage the thru-hole vias on the PCB when unsoldering the header.
Remove the supports from the front part.
Assemble front and back using 3 M3x5 screws.
Mount the Gotek PCB with 3 M3x5 screws.
Mount the CF to IDE adapter with 2 M3x5 screws.
Place the Piezo buzzer in the small pocket.
Add the Rotary encoder and the knob.
Now it is ready for the mounting in the case.
