SEL-3355 to accept SSDs mounted on SEL-3360/SEL-3350 Sliders

For People who work with a lot of different SEL computers

NOTE: SEL has  a great warranty, but if something were to ever cause it to be voided, self-modification of the enclosure might be it --- so, use at your own risk, there is no SEL awareness or endorsement of this modification).

Replace the factory nylon sliders of an SEL-3355 to accept, not only the SSD sleds they shipped with, but a these compliant sliders will allow the SEL-3355 to accept SSDs mounted on trays meant for the SEL-3360 or SEL-3350 (and, probably, future hardware variants too).

Why? - Because some of us need to swap SSDs between hardware often, so, use the smallest sled (like the SEL-3350 sled) for the drives, and then have the more generous SEL-3355 accept all variants with a more universal slider without worrying about pin-alignment or breaking the SATA connector from the drive falling through.

Should work on gen1 or gen2 - Tested on an SEL-3355-2

Installation

  1. Take off the cover of the SEL-3355 and pop out one of the sets of nylon sliders (Use the end of a Phillips screwdriver, seems to work best).
    Suggest putting these in the second-from-the-top. Then you can use the bottom (tray 1) for your main bootable media, and have room above-and-below the disk you're swapping out as removable media to easily grab all the different SSDs mounted on trays (The shorter trays for the SEL-3350 need some finger-room around them to get back out).

    2. Press the new TPU printed sliders into the mounting locations that were just vacated


    3. Test with the different disk sliders you have (Remember, SSD is always on the bottom of the slider).

You might want to take the largest one and slide it in and out vigorously a few times to knock off any other TPU support material from inside the slot.

Material

Print with TPU (or, some other mildly compliant print)

Slicing tips

Print on the "top" so that the bridge arches are horizontal at the top of the print (these will be on the bottom when installed).

I won't give you too much advice on how to get the supports for TPU to work well to come off cleanly, I'm still figuring that out, there was a good amount of knife work required on these to get the guide part cleaned out.

Make sure you mess around with your slicer so the 'bridges' are a full 4 layers thick (printed with a .4mm nozzle, needed to set the slicer advanced settings down to have walls and infill  0.4m > wall > -.35mm so it filled them up properly.
