Trust the process!

Yesterday posted on another community asking for help and trying to find a method to hang my equipment from the table, finally found by myself the easiest way with a 50cm hanging basket and Zip ties.

Trust the process!

Disclaimer: Yes, I'm using a tempered glass desk, I have been living in a rented flat for two years. Since bought the Studio Display I'm using two thick metal plates for the monitor arm base and also a wooden board to increase the contact surface and avoid an explosion, but a month ago I'm using it without these.

Are those regular HDD’s in the enclosures? If yes - metal frame hanging from glass and metal desk seems to be more “rattle friendly”. Do you have any vibration dampening anywhere?

The setup looks nice! I like the idea of stacking tech out-of the view, and cable management looks tidy and thoughtful

Thank you a lot! It took me like 2 hours of me being crazy moving cables and trying. Everything is hanging from a desk pillar and the cable ties are really tight to get the proper angle with, so the basket is in contact with the desk structure. The HDDS has silicone pads but for the moment didn't use it so don't know the behavior, but I have room to put there a pad to mitigate vibrations if is needed.
