Description

This SSD holder was designed to be mounted on the underside of the hinged phone dock door near the USB ports. The parts are attached using double sided tape. Once installed, the SSD can easily be slid out in the event that you need to review video from a Sentry Mode event. Hopefully Elon will give us the ability to review footage from the screen inside the car but until that time, being able to quickly remove the drive just makes sense.

In order to make this fit, I selected a USB/SATA adapter with a fairly short SATA end. The exact one I used can be found [here](https://amzn.to/2ttS9TQ) on Amazon.

I printed mine with TPU but I might make it again using PETG. I chose TPU because it is soft and I figured it would be less likely to rattle and make noise but the fit was really snug so I don't think that would have been an issue.

Print price estimates

Planning prices for one print, not a final quote. Defaults use a size allowance inferred from the part name, not a measured or sliced model. Filament suitability must be confirmed.

FilamentUSD / printApplication notes
PLA$28.50Indoor prototypes; not a default material for hot vehicle interiors.
PETG$29.00General-purpose candidate; heat and creep need review.
ASA$32.50Candidate for UV exposure; verify temperature and geometry.
ABS$31.50Enclosed printing; review application and dimensions.
TPU$37.50Flexible designs only; not a substitute for rigid materials.
Nylon$37.50Moisture, tolerances and application require review.
PA-CF$42.50Filled nylon; abrasive filament and fit need review.
Pricing assumptions and exclusions

USD: ($6 setup + $3 finishing + filament weight × assumed spool cost × 1.25 waste allowance + print hours × $2.50 × material time factor) ÷ 0.65. Rounded up to the next $0.50.

Assumed spool costs per kg: PLA $25, PETG $30, ASA $40, ABS $30, TPU $45, Nylon $65, PA-CF $95. Time factors: PLA/PETG 1.0, ASA/ABS 1.2, TPU 1.6, Nylon 1.4, PA-CF 1.5. These are proposed shop rates, not measured production costs.

Design work, test fitting, hardware, shipping and tax are additional where needed. Multi-file sets may need several prints. Use actual sliced weight and time when available. Final pricing is confirmed in writing.
