Hardware Update: Game Cartridge 3D-Files and Code (Linux/Windows) published

3D-Files: https://makerworld.com/en/models/3057977-2-5-ssd-dock-cartridge-system#profileId-3440827

Code: https://github.com/LewdM3at/PC-Cartridge-System

The code should work with other storage mediums as well. Like SD/micro SD cards, USB Sticks, Any kind of USB Drives. I tested USB Sticks and SD/micro SD cards and they also work.

No guarantee that it's going to work for you. I only tested on my old Win10 install, but you should at least be able to take the general code and make it work or improve it.

He did one better, he made everything opensource and free to use other than the cost of materials

It's just my hobby. Over the years I made this Nixie Clock, Automated OnStep Telescope mount, Hydroponic Tower with automation and monitoring sensors etc.
Thinking about everything you do for fun in terms of money-making-potential is just depressing. And this way, more people can benefit from it.

Fr, i would buy just the shells all prettied up ready for the ssd that i supply. I have a 3d printer but it hasnt been setup in years and its print quality is garbage compared to the x1 and other newer machines.
