Awesome bit of hardware. I built a NAS using a Samsung 980 Pro 2 TB drive.

Well designed and executed product. Very easy to assemble following the simple instructions. Two boots and I'm SD card free!

Did not come with complete hardware. There were no hex stand off spacers to attach to the NVME board. There may be other missing parts, but have not taken inventory. Shows lack of attention to detail and is disappointing. This was my first purchase ever from Pimoroni and the impression is not good. If made whole, I might change my impression, since no company is mistake free, good companies fix their errors promptly. Update: After bringing this to the attention of customer service, they responded and shipped me some new hardware, which I just received. Bravo! Standup customer service! While I was waiting for the hardware, I managed to get things working with a Samsung 980 1TB NVMe. Seems to be slightly unstable at Gen3, but works rather well at Gen2. So I now rate this at 4.5 stars.

The circuit board is missing an optional offer from you for a matching case or a matching base plate for a common case. Zur Platine fehlt ein optionales Angebot zu einem darauf abgestimmten Gehäuse, oder einer passenden Bodenplatte zu einem gängigen Gehäuse, von euch.

Works ok for the most part still testing it out with my samsung 980 pro. There are a few errors in dmesg [ 1044.362082] pcieport 0000:00:00.0: AER: Corrected error received: 0000:00:00.0 [ 1044.362094] pcieport 0000:00:00.0: PCIe Bus Error: severity=Corrected, type=Data Link Layer, (Receiver ID) [ 1044.362098] pcieport 0000:00:00.0: device [14e4:2712] error status/mask=00000080/00002000 [ 1044.362101] pcieport 0000:00:00.0: [ 7] BadDLLP [ 1048.389703] pcieport 0000:00:00.0: AER: Corrected error received: 0000:00:00.0 That I'm trying to work out.

I have 2 and just ordered my 3rd. Works flawlessly and easy enough to assemble. It’s just a shame there isn’t a case that’ll fit a Pi and this base.
