       I printed a fake disk drive.I noticed that my NAS's empty slots were letting a lot of airflow through without cooling the actual disks.  So I made dummy disks to fill the slots.  The average drive temperature went down by almost 1℃.Tagging @briancmoses because he likes this kind of thing.🧵 1/N#NAS #TrueNAS #3DPrinting

       This disk drive has horizontal screw holes.  Here's how I modeled them.  They have four crush ribs and a maximum overhang of just over 45°.Tagging @rahix because he's The Man of functional prints.EDIT: also tagging @amd because he's done some work on this.🧵 3/N #3DPrinting #FunctionalPrint
