Cover for BMAX mini PC for extending storage

Original bottom cover of B5A Pro mini PC includes designated space for SATA SSD drives, but, at least in my case, 2.5 inch 4TB HDD drive was too big to fit due to limited space between RAM and external ports. This cover increases overall height by approx. 1.5cm, so we can easily squeeze even the biggest 2.5 inch HDDs inside.

Due to  limited space inside, I've created 4 holes on  walls of the cover, so that we can screw HDD to the bracket. Those holes are approx. 7mm, keep that in mind and use slim screwdrivers.

I did not test factory bolts, instead I opted for:

  • 4x M2x10mm for the cover,

  • 4x HDD screws shipped with my drive (as long as head is below 7mm diameter they will fit), a few mm's long will do
