Sega Dreamcast 2.5" (9.5mm) internal hard drive mount/caddy for use with the IDE mod. Keeps the hard drive secure and makes the mod look a lot cleaner. This screws to the top of the GD-ROM board enclosure with three M4x6 screws. You need to force the screws in initially to create the threads as the holes weren't meant for screws (or use a drill and a tap thread bit). The hard drive needs M3x8 screws for mounting.

NOTE: This will not work with the VA2 model Dreamcast as it has a different style GD-ROM drive with no enclosure to mount the caddy to.

 

Update 12/17/2023:  

I made some improvements to the design:

  • Fixed the placement of some of the mounting holes which were slightly off.
  • Added mounting holes for a CF adapter like this one. The holes are pre-threaded but may take some force to get the screw started. You can use the same M3x8 screws that are used for the HDD.
  • Added an alternate design that had pegs on the left side instead of holes. This makes it much easier to remove the drive as the left-side screws aren't easily accessible with the power supply in the way.

Printing tips:

You can print it flat or vertical. It prints faster vertically but will require supports.
