Hello :)
This is a computer drive housing so that an HTC Vive Link Box can have the connection cables seemingly come from the inside the tower. This works with the Corsair Obsidian 650D case because there are holes which can have cables led through the case from the back.
From that point, I created a new CAD version to make a cradle for the Link Box. It fits snaps into the cradle snugly and will not slide out the front or back with prying.
I recommend that you print on your best quality settings and rotate the model so that the face of the drive layers are horizontal so it looks nicer. However, this makes the print require a lot of extra supports.
Additionally, I used 15% infill and 100% from 20mm to 22.2mm so that the tab extensions could be as strong as possible. I have attached a screenshot of this split process to illustrate it.
The drive blank took me about 2.5 hours to print on low quality settings. With the Link Box it was about 11 hours on high quality. You'll need another million hours (exactly) to remove the supports carefully.
