Does anyone have a desktop shelf unit that happens to be external drive sized? I have, like, three of these and it would be nice to shove them in something that can organize them and their cables. If I was a 3D printer person, I guess I could make something, but then they'd probably overheat.

I've looked in the past, but never found anything. I think one with a built in USB hub so that it was "just one cable" would be a bonus.

I should probably just shut up, stack them, and wrap the cords with those velcro tape organizer things.



Something I didn't mention in my comment is that I would love some kind of mounting bracket that would fit a WD Easystore (the big cheap disks that r/datahoarder loves) in such a way that I could easily open it up and swap in another disk; this would be for my backup box, which backs up everything to a USB disk that I periodically swap out with another one that lives offsite.


You could try using a letter tray so you could keep all the power bricks in the back. It really depends on how often you'll take the drives out.
