I have combined 2 of my favorite hobbies, wood working and electronics/computers.
I call it a MUBU, Modified USB Backup Unit.
It is a small form factor USB backup that would not work with the 2.5" hard drive I had. So, I modified it for use with 3.5" drives. I had to supplement the power with 5 and 12 volt from the PC with an external connection. That I put on a kill switch so it is not powered when not in use.
I wouldn't say that it is fit for mass production, it was just fun to build.
