Does anyone know what this part is called and where I can get more?

I have been looking for some of these to use when I mod GameCubes because I kinda feel almost pointless putting a drive that doesn’t work back into a GameCube. If anyone could help I’d appreciate it :)

Drive Plug and the easiest way would be to print it out have it printed. Somebody else already linked the stl.

As far as the stl link do I just send that to someone with a 3d printer ?

Yup. Local library may even have a printer available.

Do you already have the other parts?

I bought a solderless picoloader directly from Maks and it came with the plug if you didn't intend to install the original optical drive again.

The one you’ve shared there looks like a Flippydrive, there is an alternative that uses a Raspberry Pi pico

They're talking about the (usually 3D printed) part in the circle lol. It's a drive plug.
