It's discussable if a calibration by averaged potentiometers will last
very long, but assumed this should work, take care of the used glue. Hot
glue is good to make SATA connections inside a case stable etc.,
especially because hot glue is easy to remove, but since hot glue tends
to be UV-sensitive and easy to remove, it seldom last very long outside
of a case. Loctite likely is the better glue, but likely the
potentiometer never can be readjusted anymore, if you use Loctite for
screw locking.
