HDD hotswap cage for everyone!
Update 11/25: I reprinted mine and redisigned the cage to have higher tolerances for the hdds and support two 92mm fans. Now all hdds stay below 40°C. Added updated v2 as 3mf and f3d.
I designed a 6 bay hotswap hdd cage for my small form factor, high efficiency server.
It works really well and uses an very cheap Backplane from an old Supermicro Server which works with generic sata and molex connectors found in every pc. No special adapters or cables necessary!
I bought my backplane on ebay for about 10$. It mounts vertically in my Inter-Tech IM-1 Pocket case. Can be adapted to mount in any case with the attached Fusion 360 file.
Modelname of backplane: Supermicro Backplane BPN-SAS-823T
Server parts Processor: Intel Core i3-9100 LGA 1151, 3.60 GHz, 4 -Core
Mainboard: Kontron Fujitsu D3644-B C246 Micro-ATX
ECC RAM: DDR4 32GB (yes working ecc on a intel i3)
Case: Inter-Tech IM-1 Pocket
Power supply: PicoPsu150 + Leicke NT03015 12V 120W
This pc idles with about 5W with hdds spindown. Thats about as low as you can get with a self built server. I use it for smart home automation and jellyfin media server.

Notes:
No support needed for the hdd air holes, but required for the rest. You can use support blocker to save some material.
I split up the model in half in order to be printed on a 250x250 printer. You have to use about m3 x 15 flat head screw to connect the two pieces together. For mounting in the case i used 3.5'' HDD screws.
I printed it in PLA but I recommend to print in PETG or higher temp filament as mine warped due to the hdds reaching 50 °C. Also a fan at the hdds will help to cool the hdds and may resolve this problem whilst extending the hdds lives.
