“With careful handling of the flat cable, I was able to assemble the hardware very easily.
The problem is the case. The standard case is not available, so you will have to use the bare case or make your own. (That's fun, though.)
Using NVMe eliminated the bottleneck and made it very comfortable.
It's great, to say the least!”
“Actually, really easy to install and get running thought it was going to be a challenge.
Most difficult part was the flexi but follow the video and it is all good.
Happy and will now install all the apps onto my Pi 5 that I have on my Pi 4s.”
“Due to the backlog of orders I was not expecting to receive my order until the end of the month, but I actually received it ahead of expectations, so that was really good. The NVMe base with SSD was easy to install and set up as shown in the video and runs very well so far. I would definitely recommend this item to anyone who wants a convenient fast SSD based Pi system.
Overall very pleased indeed.”
“This works very well, and the bend in the flat cable lets us remove the SD card from the pi. I would have found a slightly longer flat cable, to make connection less fiddly. The legend on the cable is very useful. I like the screw kit, and it iis all good quality.
I am very happy with the product, slightly less so with the instructions. I had to combine instructions with another make to understand the purpose of the edits .
I would welcome some status LEDs on the card.
I am not enamoured of the adhesive feet.
How about a version of the 3D printed case to suit”
“Using on an 8G 5 and boots up very quick, (pi OS). Also Pi running a few degrees cooler at idle than when running on an SSD. Will see how I get on using as my every day
PC... so far very pleased.”
“This is the option I have been waiting for, it transforms the Pi into a very fast usable unit.
Easy to fit, being underneath doesnt interfere with the active cooling and the offset PCIe cable leaves the micro sd card slot available.”
